What is it about?

Exploration of 9-bromo[7]helicene reactivity mainly in Pd-catalyzed reactions is reported. Palladium catalyzed carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom coupling reactions provide a large portfolio of racemic helicenes bearing different functional groups in good to excellent yields. Many of the reactions were performed in the microwave reactor keeping reaction time to a minimum compared with conventional synthetic methods.
