Scheme: Previous works (a) and our synthetic proposal (b). Credit: Charles University A research team has successfully synthesized a new class of helical quinolizinium salts exhibiting exceptionally strong fluorescence in the orange-to-red light region (606–682 nm). The work, published in the journal Chemical Communications, combines cutting-edge rhodium-catalyzed [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization and C–H activation strategies to efficiently build complex helical molecular architectures with remarkable optical properties. In the first stage, appropriately substituted diynes were subjected to Rh-catalyzed cyclotrimerization with trimethylsilylethyne, yielding 1-arylisoquinolines in isolated yields of up to 61%. These intermediates then underwent C–H activation and annulation with various aryl and alkyl…
