Abstract
Matrix presented. A versatile synthesis of a dendritic structure (5) is described in which six tetraphenylethylene moieties are connected to a central benzene ring in such a way that one of the phenyl rings of each tetraphenylethylene is also part of the propeller of the hexaphenylbenzene core. Observation of multiple oxidation waves in its cyclovoltammogram as well as an intense charge-resonance transition in the near-IR region in its cation radical spectrum suggests that a single hole delocalizes via electron transfer over six identical redox-active centers.
