Curves are ahead of the curve: Tetrathienylcorannulenecompounds showed highlysensitivephotochromism with a large molar absorption coefficient and a photocyclization quantum yield close to 1, although dithienyl phenanthrene compounds showed no photoreactivity. Such a high photoreactivity was rationalized by the predominance of the photoreactive atropisomers amplified by energy migration, and the

Electrochemical nickel-catalyzed syntheses of triphenylenes by a) reductive trimerization of ortho-dibromobenzenes or ortho-bromoarylsulfurofluoridates, or b) reductive cross-coupling of ortho-dibromobenzenes to 2,2’-diiodobiphenyls, are described. The former provides a practical means for the construction of triphenylene derivatives in up to 87% isolated yield at room temperature. For 1,2-dihalo-3-methylbenzenes
