Abstract
TriQuinoline (TQ), a quasi-planar cyclic quinoline trimer in a head-to-tail arrangement, strongly captures a proton and exhibits unusual physicochemical properties. In article 10.1002/asia.202500429, Naoya Kumagai and co-workers designed and synthesized its expanded analog, Enlarged-TriQuinoline (Enl-TQ), in which three alkyne units are embedded between three quinoline units to acquire an expanded ring system. Despite its structural similarity to TQ, geometrically scaled Enl-TQ displayed distinct host capability and photophysical characteristics.
期刊介绍:
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is an international high-impact journal for chemistry in its broadest sense. The journal covers all aspects of chemistry from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to physical chemistry, including interdisciplinary topics.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal publishes Full Papers, Communications, and Focus Reviews.
A professional editorial team headed by Dr. Theresa Kueckmann and an Editorial Board (headed by Professor Susumu Kitagawa) ensure the highest quality of the peer-review process, the contents and the production of the journal.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is published on behalf of the Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES), an association of numerous Asian chemical societies, and supported by the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), ChemPubSoc Europe, and the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies (FACS).
