Mono-, pseudo-gem, and pseudo-para ethynylcyclophanes bis(azides) have been employed as addition partners in CuAAC reactions to design build complex extended molecular scaffolds. The reactivity of the resulting triazoles was investigated under photochemical conditions. A variety newly substituted [2.2]paracyclophanes were identified; deazotization pseudo-gem adducts provided indolophane derivatives. An intramolecular stabilization effect observed case rearrangement from a adduct pseudo-ortho...
