A Near-Infrared Absorbing and Emissive Quadruple Helicene Enabled by the Scholl Reaction of Perylene (Miao) The Chinese University of Hong Kong - CUHK onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Our most recent review on the Scholl reaction and curved polycyclic aromatics, highlighting cool works by Itami Lab Stępień Lab ⚗️ michael mastalerz Pingwu Du Campaña Group Jishan Wu and many others pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Aza-triangulene and its cation isolated in crystalline form! We have been working on high-spin systems for more than 6 years and finally can obtain a relatively stable one. Paper was just accepted in Angewandte Chemie onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

We've found that radical cations of double [5]helicene are unusually air-stable. They exhibit high conductivity and enable an organic nonvolatile optoelectronic memory. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Chiral Open-[60]Fullerene Ligands with Giant Dissymmetry Factors Kyoto University #Chiral #Fullerene #Ligand #Dissymmetry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Have polyacenes really been synthesized? I'm not convinced by the characterization with solid NMR, FTIR and other methods. Don't forget pentacene and larger acenes easily dimerize and are oxidized by molecular oxygen.

Negatively curved molecular nanocarbons contain up to six heptagons. We have synthesized them through the Scholl reactions of macrocyclic substrates. cell.com/chem/fulltext/…

Radical-radical coupling and radical-mediated coupling approaches toward monolayer and bilayer graphene fragments! We also observed an unusual 32-center-2-electron covalent π-bonding. Paper was just published in Nature Synthesis. Tianyu Jiao SunZhe nature.com/articles/s4416…

We found a way to make an eight-membered ring using the Scholl reaction. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

We synthesized a new carbon nanobelt by controlling regioselectivity in the Scholl reaction pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

We made a 9-memered ring, which is surrounded by 6 benzene rings and 3 furan rings. It stacks in the crystal like saddle-shaped potato chips, showing remarkable pi-pi interactions. Angewandte Chemie onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Daisies and trioxa[9]circulene synthesized by us

Our most recent JACS article demonstrates molecular orbital tuning (or molecular orbital engineering) that modifies the frontier molecular orbitals of an organic semiconductor without changing its shape and molecular packing in the crystal structure.  pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

We made new conjugated nanobelts containing 8-membered rings and N atoms. chinesechemsoc.org/doi/10.31635/c…

A Key Fragment in Carbon Schwarzite Unit Cells and Its Triple [6]Helicene Precursor (Qian Miao and co-workers) The Miao Group #openaccess 🔓 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

We made a key fragment of carbon schwarzites. Its triple helicene precursor exhibits a high absorption dissymmetry factor. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

We made a writhed Möbius nanobelt. It differs from the known Möbius nanobelt with a twist of 180 degree by incorporating a writhe (or a crossing) due to [7] helicene. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
