Abstract
2,3,6,7,10,11-Hexamethoxytriphenylene is prepared by oxidative trimeri zation of 1,2-dimethoxybenzene (veratrol) with iron(III) chloride/sulf uric acid in nearly quantitative yield. The obtained crude product is almost pure. Other alkoxy-substituted triphenylenes are also synthesiz ed by this method.
