Thiophene-fused analogues of warped nanographene (<b>WNG</b>) and quintuple helicene (<b>QH</b>) were synthesized <i>via</i> a three-step π-extension of corannulene. Similar to the synthetic route to <b>WNG</b>, five hexagons and five heptagons were generated by a Scholl reaction of pentakis(thienylphenyl)corannulene to form pentathiaWNG. In contrast, decathiaWNG could not be obtained from pentakis(thienylthienyl)corannulene, and instead decathiaQH was generated from the photocyclization of the ...[more]
