Anyone up to ‘nanokid’ synthesis?
This is taken from Chanteau SH, Tour JM. Synthesis of anthropomorphic molecules: The nanoPutians. J Org Chem. 2003;68(23):8750–66

A bunch of Sonogashira couplings interspersed with simple aromatic manipulations… honestly, pretty boring.

Well, yeah, I agree it is not very challenging and a bit repetitive. Nothing like total synthesis of cholesterol :p

Funny. I was showing a pic of this molecule to my daughter (13). She asked if it was a real molecule and I said it had probably never been made.
Now, if it is so straightforward, I am wondering if anyone has given it a go and had it verified. And also, I am curious what its properties are.
