Abstract
The evolution of heterocycles from hexaazaanthracene to tetraazapentacenes led to the discovery that syn aza-substituted polyazaacenes possess unusual zwitterionic structures. One of these, 5,7-diphenyl-5H,12H-quinoxalino[2,3-b]phenazine 4, first claimed in 1898 was fully characterized, including an X-ray crystal structure. These heteroacenes have a low calculated singlet-triplet gap and have unusual photophysical properties. ©1999 IUPAC.
