Abstract π-Extended oxepins 1 and dimer 8 were synthesized by the benzannulation of the corresponding asymmetric diarylacetylene derivatives and 2-(phenylethynyl)benzaldehyde followed by the Cu-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization. The optical properties of the π-extended oxepins 1 and 8 are also investigated.
