As cut-outs from a graphene sheet, nanographenes (NGs) and graphene nanoribbons
(GNRs) are ideal cases with which to connect the world of molecules with that of bulk carbon …

Planar and curved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) attract significant attention as
molecular models of fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, thus stimulating broad …

Helical bilayer nanographenes (HBNGs) are chiral π-extended aromatic compounds
consisting of two π–π stacked hexabenzocoronenes (HBCs) joined by a helicene, thus …

In this work, the chemical reduction of a hybrid pyracylene-hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene
(HPH) nanographene was investigated with different alkali metals (Na, K, Rb) to reveal its …

Scholl oxidation has become an essential reaction in the bottom‐up synthesis of molecular
nanographenes. Herein, we describe a Scholl reaction controlled by the electronic effects on …

The bottom‐up synthesis of 3D tetrakis (hexa‐peri‐hexabenzocoronenyl) methane,“
tetrahedraphene”, is reported. This molecular nanographene constituted by four hexa‐peri …

Helicenes of increasing dimensions and complexity have recently burst into the scene due
to their unique structures coupled with interesting chiral, optical, and conducting properties …

The synthesis of diradical organic compounds has garnered significant attention due to their
thermally accessible spin inversion and optoelectronic properties. Yet, preparing such stable …

It is a celebratory moment for graphene! This year marks the 20th anniversary of the
discovery of this amazing material by Geim and Novoselov. Curiously, it coincides with the …

The chemical reduction of a π‐expanded polycyclic framework comprising a
cyclooctatetraene moiety, octaphenyltetrabenzocyclooctatetraene, with lithium metal readily …
