Upon flash pyrolysis between 580 to 660°, 2,4,6‐tris(chloromethyl)mesitylene ( 2 ) leads to products formed through the loss of one, two and three molecules of HCl. The highly reactive chlorine free product is shown to be [6]radialene ( 1 ) both by its chemical reactions and by its spectral properties.
