Perchlorocoronene: a novel host precursor

Abstract
The title compound (1b), a new non-planar chlorocarbon possessing approximate D3d symmetry, has been prepared by chlorination of coronene (1a); complete substitution of (1b) by arenethiolate nucleophiles in the dipolar aprotic solvent DMEU (1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one) yields the dodecathioethers (2a) and (2b), members of a new prospective host series.
