The synthesis, structural, redox, and photophysical properties of the two- and three-layered donor−acceptor (D−A) type [3.3]paracyclophanes ([3.3]PCPs) are described. The synthesis of the two- and three-layered [3.3]PCPs 1 and 2 containing 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BTD) as an acceptor was achieved by the (p-ethylbenzenesulfonyl)methyl isocyanide coupling method. The cyclic voltammograms of 1 and 2 along
