A game of dominos : Domino [4+2]/[4+2] cycloadditions between 1,8‐difurylnaphthalene and arynes provide the corresponding adducts in a highly diastereoselective manner. This new synthetic methodology enables the preparation of elusive perylene derivatives with a remarkable reduced HOMO–LUMO gap, a crucial feature for organic semiconductors.
