  • Descrição: The thermal [2+2] cycloaddition–retroelectrocyclization (CA‐RE) reaction between a range of alkynes, activated by electron‐donating anilino (p‐H2NC6H4‐) substituents, and the electron‐deficient olefins tetracyanoethene (TCNE) and 7,7,8,8‐tetracyano‐p‐quinodimethane (TCNQ) delivered anilino‐substituted polycyanobutadienes (PCBDs). The aniline NH2 groups provide a convenient handle for further transformations, yielding a new series of PCBDs without an electron‐donating group. Electrochemical investigations by rotating disk voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry revealed large anodic shifts in both the first and second reduction potentials as a result of the removal of the electron‐donating functionality. This methodology allows for PCBD‐containing substrates to be further elaborated, generating a new family of chromophores previously inaccessible by alternative synthetic methods. The use of ethynylated anilines as activated alkynes in cycloaddition–retroelectrocyclization reactions with tetracyanoethene and tetracyanoquinodimethane provides access to novel, highly electron‐deficient polycyanobutadienes and unprecedented chromophores. Electrochemical studies show that the electron‐accepting abilities are strongly enhanced upon elimination of the amino donor substituent.
