Surprisingly thermally stable , the hexaannulanes 1 can be heated without decomposition to 200 °C ( 1a ) or 180 °C ( 1b ). They are accessible in good yields from tris(benzocyclobutadieno)cyclohexatriene by cyclopropanation with Et 2 Zn or by epoxidation with 3,3‐dimethyl‐1,2‐dioxacyclopropane, respectively, and were characterized by spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography in the case of 1a for a hexakis(trimethylsilyl) derivative.
