Abstract :
En route to helicene metal ‘sandwich’ complexes we have discovered an unusual oxidative rearrangement of [7]-helicene. The process involves a substantial skeletal rearrangement with the loss of helicity. We describe the identification of this curious product and its subsequent characterisation data.
