Selective Even-Numbered Bromination of Triptycene Tris(thiadiazoles)

An unusual even-numbered bromination of triptycene tristhiadiazole is described, giving selectively dibromo-, tetrabromo-, and hexabromotriptycenes with two bromines each at the same phenyl ring. The new compounds can be used as precursors for extended π-conjugated systems and polymers.
