journal contribution
posted on 2012-02-15, 00:00 authored by Akiko Yagi, Yasutomo Segawa, Kenichiro ItamiThe first synthesis of a π-extended carbon nanoring,
[9]cyclo-1,4-naphthylene
([9]CN), has been achieved. Careful structure–property analyses
uncovered a number of unique features of [9]CN that are quite different
from those of [9]CPP, a simple carbon nanoring.
