Abstract
A novel, benign synthetic strategy towards soluble tetra(peri-naphthylene)anthracene (TPNA) decorated with triisopropylsilylethynyl substituents has been established. The compound is perfectly stable under ambient conditions in air and features intense and strongly bathochromically shifted UV/vis absorption and emission bands reaching to near-IR region beyond 900 nm. Cyclic voltammetry measurements revealed four facilitated reversible redox events comprising two oxidations and two reductions. These remarkable experimental findings were corroborated by theoretical studies to identify the TPNA platform a particularly useful candidate for the development of functional near-IR fluorophores upon appropriate functionalization.

Abstract
Regioselective arrangement of two groups of orthogonal reactivity in bowl-shaped as-indaceno[3,2,1,8,7,6-pqrstuv]picene (Idpc) was key for the synthesis of hetero-bis-functionalized Idpc derivatives. Halogen and methyl groups were positioned at specific positions in the rim area of Idpc at an early stage during the synthesis by functionalization of suitable precursors. Regioselective functionalization of the bowl's rim was then finally achieved either via consecutive Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne coupling (CuAAC) and C-C cross-coupling reactions or by C-C cross-coupling alone, giving access to either symmetric or non-symmetric bis-functionalized Idpc derivatives. The self-aggregation behavior of 9c in solution was investigated by recording a series of concentration-dependent NMR spectra. The aggregation constant of 9c was determined by a nonlinear least-squares treatment of the 1H NMR shift data to be 2.9 ± 0.2 M-1, and the formation of dimers was found to be the prevailing process.

Abstract
C-C cross coupling products of bowl-shaped as-indaceno[3,2,1,8,7,6-pqrstuv]picene (Idpc) and different planar arenes and ethynyl-arenes were synthesized. Photoluminescence as well as electrochemical properties of all products were investigated and complemented by time-dependent quantum chemical calculations. UV/Vis spectroelectrochemistry investigations of the directly linked (Idpc)2 indicated the absence of any intramolecular charge-transfer transition of intermittently formed (Idpc)2 .- . All coupling products showed fluorescence. Ferrocene-1-yl-Idpc was structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction and is a rare example of a ferrocene-containing buckybowl exhibiting luminescence.
