Significance

The ability to stereospecifically and sequentially link multiple alkynes together into extended conjugated networks represents a versatile method for the synthesis of functional polyenes. The materials presented, although not intrinsically useful in their own right, serve as potential intermediates for the synthesis of chromo­phores and electroactive materials.
