Abstract

Abstract : The enantioselective synthesis of distorted chiral triptycenes, consisting of three distinct aromatic rings, has been achieved with high ee value. This Frontispiece used "Mitsudomoe (three comma‐shaped figures in a circle, one of the traditional Japanese patterns)", there are two types of which left‐ and right‐handed, to image the selective synthesis of one enantiomer of the chiral triptycene. Besides, this Mitsudomoe pattern, which is composed of three different collars, associates that this chiral triptycene has three different aromatic rings derived from three components of diyne, 6‐methoxy‐1, 2‐dihydronaphthalene, and 1, 4‐naphthoquinone.
