Abstract

Read online

Gridarenes with well-defined edges and vertices represent versatile nanoscale building blocks for installating frameworks but suffer from lack of stereoselective control during their synthesis. Here, the authors report a diastereoselective gridization of superelectrophilic diazafluorene-containing substrates with crescent shapes into Drawing Hands grids (DHGs).
