Recently, multiple helicenes have attracted enormous attention due to their exceptionally distorted conjugated architectures, appealing optical properties and unique spatial stacking patterns. The electronic and optical properties of multiple helicenes could be modulated by heteroatom doping. Herein, the first triple aza[6]helicene was reported by an intramolecular oxidation reaction, which exhibited highly distorted propeller-like geometry revealed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In comparison to the reported triple oxa[6]helicene, the triple aza[6]helicene demonstrated increased quantum yield (5.5%), and chiroptical properties with a |gabs| value of 0.012 and a |glum| value of 3.0×10-3. Furthermore, the stability and chiroptical properties of the triple aza[6]helicene could be enhanced by N-alkylation.
