A facile two-step synthesis of aza[7]helicenes possessing a 6-5-6-6-6-5-6 skeleton from commercially available 2,9-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline via double amination with aniline derivatives followed by hypervalent iodine reagent-mediated intramolecular double-NH/CH couplings was developed. Single-crystal X-ray analyses of the helicenes revealed unique structures, including both a significantly twisted center and planar terminals of the skeleton. The azahelicenes show high fluorescent quantum yields (Fs) under both neutral (Phi: 0.25-0.55) and acidic conditions (Phi: up to 0.80). An enantiomerically pure aza[7] helicene showed high circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) activity under both neutral and acidic conditions (g(lum): up to 0.009).
