Abstract
Previously unknown 4a-aza-12a-borachrysene has been synthesized in only four steps. The reactions of this BN-embedded PAH with bromine and organolithium compounds proceed with complete regioselectivity, resulting in the formation of nine derivatives. One of these, a phenylalkynyl-substituted derivative, exhibits a remarkably high fluorescence quantum yield (PhiF = 0.68).
