ynthesis of new azonia derivatives of thia[6]helicene ( 1 ) and thia[7]helicene ( 2 ) is described. The Knoevenagel condensation of 2‐methylbenzothieno[3,2‐ a ]quinolizinium salt ( 8 ) with appropriate arylaldehydes yielded 2‐(arylvinyl)benzothieno[3,2‐ a ]quinolizinium salts ( 9 and 10 ), respectively. Photocyclization of 2‐styrylbenzothieno[3,2‐ a ]quinolizinium salt ( 8 ) gave 7a‐azonia‐5‐thia[6]helicene ( 1 ) in 63% yield. Similarly, 2‐[2‐(2‐naphthyl)vinyl]benzothieno[3,2‐ a ]quinolizinium salt ( 10 ) afforded 7a‐azonia‐5‐thia[7]helicene ( 2 ) in 56% yield. The complete and unambiguous assignment of their 1 H‐ and 13 C‐nmr spectra was performed by utilizing two‐dimensional nmr spectroscopic methods.
