Metalloaromatic species are unique and important both experimentally and theoretically.
Significant progress has been made during the past few decades. New aromatic systems …

Aromatic compounds have been known for more than 180 years, ever since the discovery by
Faraday in 1825 of the first aromatic hydrocarbon, benzene,[1] whose remarkable cyclic …

Several polymers have been used to detect nitroaromatic explosives by a variety of
transduction schemes. Detection relies on both electronic and structural interactions …

Until recently the low-coordinate compounds of the heavier elements of group 14 were
known only as transient, unstable species which were difficult to isolate. However recent …

Synthesis, properties, and application of new σ-and π-electron systems consisting of the
silole rings are described. A series of 2, 5-and 1, 1-difunctionalized siloles have been …

Abstract A series of 2, 5‐diaryl‐3, 4‐diphenylsiloles, with various mono‐substituted phenyl
groups, extended π‐conjugated groups, and heteroaryl groups as aryl groups at the 2, 5 …

Metalloaromaticity is the manifestation of aromatic properties in the chelate metallacycle,
and was first described by Calvin and Wilson in 1945. The subject has received sporadic …

Synthetic routes to the metallole species C4Me4E (H) R (9, E= Si, R= Si (SiMe3) 3; 10, E= Si,
R= Mes (mesityl); 11, E= Ge, R= Si (SiMe3) 3; 12, E= Ge, R= Mes), C4R4E (SiMe3) 2 (13, E …

A series of group 14 metalloles, from silole to stannole, together with cyclopentadiene,
having two thienyl groups at the 2, 5-positions, have been prepared. Their crystal structures …

Much attention has been focused on the chemistry of silaaromatic compounds, ie, Si-
containing [4n+ 2] π ring systems, and a number of reports on the formation and reactions of …
