Abstract
AbstractTriquinanes are tricyclic hydrocarbons that have fused cyclopentane rings. Although there are linear and angular triquinanes that are doubly fused, this Account focuses exclusively on the ‘triquinacane’, or triply fused structure with a heteroatom (nitrogen or oxygen) on the C
3v symmetry axis. Azatriquinane- and oxatriquinane-based species tend to show remarkable and often unexpected chemistry, and have variously comprised the most basic trialkyl amine, a superbasic proton chelate, trigonal pyramidal ligand platforms, novel calixiform hosts, aromatic hemispheres of hetero-C20 fullerenes, cocrystallizing agents for eliminating rotational disorder in fullerene crystals, the first water-stable, chromatographable trialkyloxonium species, the first isolable allylic oxonium species, world-record C–O bond lengths, rapid SN2 reaction at a tertiary center, and R4O2+ (oxadionium) species.1 Introduction2 Azatriquinane3 Azatriquinacene4 Aromatic Azatriquinacene-Based Systems5 Oxatriquinane6 Tetravalent Oxygen7 Oxatriquinacene8 The Future
