The first hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) analogues bearing a nine-membered carbocycle are presented. Furthermore, for the first time, pi-extended carbo[n]helicenes containing a nine-membered ring as part of the helical moiety have been synthesized. The combination of a [5]helicene moiety and a nonagon ring in a single chiral motif induces a tremendous distortion from planarity into the nanographenic structures compared to other saddle-helix hybrids such as heptagon- and octagon-containing pi-extended carbo[5]helicenes. In fact, the interplanar angle of the two terminal rings reaches the largest angle (134.8 degrees) of a carbohelicene reported to date, thus being by far the most twisted helicene yet prepared. Photophysical properties evaluation showed improved absorption dissymmetry factors (|g(abs)|=4.2x10(-3)) in the new family of nonagon-containing pi-extended carbo[5]helicenes.}, organization = {European Research Council (ERC) ERC-2015-STG-677023}, organization = {Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovacion y Universidades (MICIU/FEDER/AEI, Spain) PGC2018-101181-B-I00}, organization = {Universidad de Granada (UGR) (Plan Propio - Intensificacion de la Investigacion) PP2017-PRI.I-02}, organization = {Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) European Commission CRSK-2_190365}, organization = {Universidad de Granada/CBUA}, publisher = {Wiley Online Library}, keywords = {Chirality}, keywords = {Helicenes}, keywords = {Nanographenes}, keywords = {Nonagonal carbocycle}, keywords = {Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons}, title = {Chiral Distorted Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes Bearing a Nonagon-Embedded Carbohelicene}, doi = {10.1002/anie.202109310}, doi = {10.1002/ange.202109310}, author = {Medel Miranda, Miguel Ángel and Moreno Cruz, Carlos and Miguel, Delia and Blanco Suárez, Víctor and Morcillo Martínez, Sara Patricia and González Campaña, Araceli}, }
