Iptycene

An iptycene is an aromatic compound composed of varying number of arene subunits bound to bicyclo-octatriene brighead system. The first and simplest iptycene molecule is triptycene.[1]

The first iptycene was reported in 1931 by Clar.[2] Bartlett et al. developed Clar's method and made the first triptycene. [3]
