Abstract

This paper presents an environmentally benign procedure for the preparation of monohydroxy-functionalized triphenylenes using simple ionic reagents. Pyridinium hydrochloride, pyridinium hydrobromide, N-methyl pyridinium iodide, N-ethyl pyridinium bromide, and 1-n-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium bromide have been employed to prepare various monohydroxypentaalkoxytriphenylenes, which are valuable precursors for the synthesis of a variety of discotic monomers, dimers, oligomers, and polymers.
