Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>A fast and efficient palladium‐catalyzed fourfold domino Sonogashira/double‐carbopalladation/CH‐activation reaction that converts simple aromatic systems into complex polycyclic hydrocarbons has been developed. A number of substituted products has thus been prepared in yields up to 89 %. The structural assignment has been confirmed by using single‐crystal X‐ray crystallography. The products show intriguing fluorescence activity and thus might serve as chemical sensors or fluorescent imaging dyes.</p> </abstract>
