A modular synthesis of a series of methoxy substituted optically pure aromatic triynes (-)-(S)-5-9 and (-)-(R)-10 is presented. It relies on key operations such as substitution of benzylic bromine with an alkoxy group and aryl-alkyne coupling reaction to combine appropriate methoxy substituted benzene/naphthalene building blocks and chiral alkynol synthons such as (-)-(2S)-but-3-yn-2-ol and (-)-(1R)-1-phenylprop-2-yn-1-ol. The triyne molecules comprise a diphenylacetylene, 1-(phenylethynyl)naphthalene or 1,1'-ethyne-1,2-diyldinaphthalene core unit. They are intended to serve as [2+2+2] cyclisation precursors of methoxy substituted nonracemic helicene-like compounds with a penta-, hexa- and heptacyclic helical scaffold.
