Hopf et al. reported the high-temperature 6π-electrocyclization of cis-hexa-1, 3-diene-5-yne
to benzene in 1969. Subsequent studies using this cyclization have been limited by its very …

Controlling the synthesis of low-dimensional chiral nanostructures on solid surfaces has
attracted tremendous interest in recent years. Herein, we report a study showing substrate …

The concentration-in-control strategy is a versatile and powerful approach to construct a
variety of low-dimensional nanostructures. However, little is known about the mechanistic …

Surface-catalyzed reactions have been used to synthesize carbon nanomaterials with
atomically predefined structures. The recent discovery of a gold surface-catalyzed [3+ 3] …

Using 4-(3, 6-dibromo-9H-carbazol-9-yl) benzonitrile (DBCB) precursors, we successfully
constructed two types of cyano-substituted polymers on Au (111) by the molecular beam …

KY3F10, a fluoride compound with two polymorphs (α and δ), has been a subject of study
due to its unique properties. Obtaining the metastable δ-phase has been challenging, but …

On-surface synthesis has emerged as a powerful strategy to fabricate unprecedented forms
of atomically precise graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). However, the on-surface synthesis of …

Controlled bottom-up fabrication of molecular nanostructures through on-surface reactions
of tailor-made precursors is of scientific and technological interest. Recently, on-surface …

The substrate-modulation effect permeates throughout the realm of surface chemistry,
particularly in the field of on-surface reactions. A comprehensive understanding of the …
