Effective synthesis of diiodinated picene and dibenzo[a,h]anthracene by AuCl-catalyzed double cyclization

6,13-Diiododibenzo[a,h]anthracene and 5,8-diiodopicene were synthesized by AuCl-catalyzed double cyclization. The highly selective reaction yielded a new class of peri-halogenated fused aromatics.
