Abstract

Synthesis of tetrathia-[4]-peristylane, the first thiabowl, from the dimer of cyclooctatetraene has been accomplished. The X-ray crystal structure of the tetrathiabowl indicates significant departure from the expected C4v symmetry and in the solid state it exhibits a multi-columnar arrangement and a novel ‘self-inclusion’ phenomenon, directed by a network of S···S and CH···S interactions.
