Abstract
Various multi carbon homologations of 9-phenyl-9H-xanthen-9-ol (1) were obtained through a C-C bond formation by reacting it with various enolisable ketones in the presence of 1,1′-(ethane-1,2-diyl)dipyridinium bistribromide (EDPBT). All the ten derivatives along with the starting xanthen-9-ol have been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. They all form self-assembled superstructure in the solid state. The self-assembling patterns in these supramolecular architectures were explained based on steric and electronic nature of the pendant arm.
