We report a modular synthetic strategy for accessing heteroatom-containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) that relies on the controlled generation of transient heterocyclic alkynes and arynes. The strained intermediates undergo in situ trapping with readily accessible oxadiazinones. Four sequential pericyclic reactions occur, namely two Diels–Alder / retro-Diels–Alder sequences, which can be performed in a stepwise or one-pot fashion to assemble four new carbon–carbon (C–C) bonds.

Experimental reaction rates of the benzogenic Diels- Alder reaction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with maleic anhydride are correlated with the corresponding bislocalization energies calculated by the PMO method. The observed relations between the localization energies of the reacting centres and the topology of the hydrocarbons can be qualitatively understood on the basis of Clar’s π-sextet model of polycyclic systems and Polansky’s pars orbital method.

A number of arynes, generated by treatment of haloarenes with sodium or potassium amide in tetrahydrofuran, were trapped with furan. The resulting dihydro epoxy arenes were converted into the following annulated isobenzofuran derivatives by using reverse Diels-Alder methodology: naphtho[l,2-clfuran, phenanthro[9,10-elfuran, pyreno[l,2-elfuran, pyreno[3,4- elfuran, anthra[l,2- elfuran, phenanthro[l,2- clfuran and phenanthro[3,4- elfuran. Bimolecular rate constants for the addition of maleic anhydride to these furans were measured, and were correlated with the Herndon structure count. Addition of arynes to selected members of this furan series yielded adducts which were deoxygenated to afford polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
