Abstract

Novel trisilasumanenes that have no substituents on the exo carbon atoms, silicon analogues of sumanene, were prepared via repetitive lithiations of triphenylene followed by introduction of silicon functionalities. The optical properties of these trisilasumanenes and their related compounds were investigated by UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy.
