Notes:
X-ray investigations on the ten-membered heterocyclodiynes 1 - 4 reveal a chair-like conformation for all four compounds. The triple bonds are oriented parallel to each other, the distances between them varying between 3.10 Å (2) and 2.91 Å (1). All triple bonds are slightly bent, the deviation from 180° varies between 6 - 10°. The photoelectron spectra of 1 and 3 - 6 have been recorded. The first six bands have been assigned by comparing them with related species and MO calculations. In the case of 3 - 6, the HOMO is predicted to be a long pair combination. The splitting between the in-plane π-linear combinations η-i, η+i ranges from 0.9 eV (5) up to 1.5 eV (4).
