Triptycenes are a class of aromatic hydrocarbons. The parent compound triptycene is the Diels-Alder reaction product of anthracene and benzyne. The compound has a paddlewheel configuration with D3h symmetry. Barrelenes are conceptually related compounds. The hydrocarbon framework is very rigid and triptycene and triptycene derivatives such as triptycene quinones are therefore incorporated in many organic compounds as a molecular scaffold for instance in molecular motors or as a ligand for example in this hydrocyanation:
