Hexaarylbenzene (HAB) derivatives are versatile aromatic systems playing a significant role as chromophores, liquid crystalline materials, molecular receptors, redox materials, organic light-emitting diodes and photochemical switches. Statistical synthesis of simple symmetrical HABs is known <i>via</i> low-yielding cyclotrimerization or Diels-Alder reactions. By contrast, the synthesis of more complex, asymmetrical systems, and without involvement of statistical steps, remains an unsolved problem. Here we present a generally applicable synthetic strategy to access asymmetrical HAB <i>via</i> an atom-economical and high-yielding metal-free four-step domino reaction using nitrostyrenes and <i>α,α</i>-dicyanoolefins as easily available starting materials. Resulting domino product – functionalized triarylbenzene (TAB) - can be used as a key starting compound to furnish asymmetrically substituted hexaarylbenzenes in high overall yield and without involvement of statistical steps. This straightforward domino process represents a distinct approach to creating diverse and still unexplored HAB scaffolds, containing six different aromatic rings around central benzene core.

A domino reaction sequence has been evaluated that begins with union of novel dihydrooxazinone precursors with 2-alkynyl-substituted benzaldehyde components through aldol condensation. Ensuing operations, including alkene isomerization, Diels–Alder, and retrograde Diels–Alder with loss of CO2 occurs in the same reaction vessel to provide polysubstituted tricyclic pyridine products.

We report herein an efficient synthesis of furopyran derivatives through a gold(I)-catalyzed domino reaction. The cascade reaction starts with two regioselective cyclizations, a 5-endo-dig and a 8-endo-dig, followed with a Grob-type fragmentation and a hetero Diels–Alder. The obtained furopyran derivatives contain fused and spiro-heterocycles. During this one-pot process, four bonds and four controlled stereogenic centers including a quaternary center are formed.
