Abstract:
We report two new helicenes derived from the double fusion of an acene with two perylene diimide (PDI) subunits. These PDI‐helicene homologs exhibit very different structural and electronic properties, despite differing by only a single ring in the link between the PDI units. The shorter inter‐PDI link brings the two PDI subunits closer together, and this results in the collision of their respective π‐electron clouds. This collision facilitates intramolecular through‐space electronic delocalization when the PDI‐helicene is reduced.
