RESUMEN
Building on prototype 1, which achieves 120 degrees of phosgene-powered unidirectional rotation to rotamer 6 (see Figure 5 in the full article), 7 was designed to accomplish repeated unidirectional rotation (see Scheme 7). Compound 7 contains an amino group on each blade of the triptycene and a 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) unit to selectively deliver phosgene (or its equivalent) to the amine in the "firing position". The synthesis of 7 is described: the key constructive steps are a benzyne addition to an anthracene to generate the triptycene, a stilbene photocyclization to construct the helicene, and a Stille coupling to incorporate the DMAP unit. The DMAP unit was shown to regioselectively relay 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (but not phosgene) to the proximal amino group, as designed, but rotation of the triptycene does not occur. Extensive attempts to troubleshoot the problem led to the conclusion that the requisite intramolecular urethane formation, as demonstrated in the prototype (1 --> 4), does not occur with 7 (to give 85) or 97 (to give 100). We speculate that either (i) hydrogen bonding between the hydroxypropyl group and functionality present in 7 but absent from 1 or (ii) a Bürgi-Dunitz (or similar) interaction involving the DMAP (see 106) prevents achievement of a conformation conducive to intramolecular urethane formation.

The 3-chloropyridazine moiety was immobilized on a Wang resin, using two different methodologies. The first of these involved direct nucleophilic substitution of 3,6-dichloropyridazine with the alcoholate of Wang resin. The experimental conditions were optimized. The second method involved a Mitsunobu reaction between the Wang resin and 6-chloropyridazin-3-ol during which a problem of regioselectivity was observed. The so-obtained chloropyridazine-containing resins were subsequently reacted with various arylboronic acids under Suzuki conditions. Acid cleavage yielded 6-arylpyridazin-3(2H)-ones with high chemical purity.
