Nanometre-sized carbon materials consisting of benzene units oriented in unique geometric
patterns, hereafter named nanocarbons, conduct electricity, absorb and emit light, and …

The first synthesis of a cyclic oligophenylene possessing a radial π system was reported in
2008. In the short period that has elapsed since, there has been an ever-increasing level of …

Graphite, the most stable form of elemental carbon, consists of pure carbon sheets stacked
upon one another like reams of paper. Individual sheets, known as graphene, prefer planar …

The selective and predictable synthesis of structurally uniform carbon nanotubes (CNTs)
represents a long‐standing goal in both nanocarbon science and synthetic organic …

Synthesis of a carbon nanobelt (CNB) is a very challenging task in organic chemistry.
Herein, we report the successful synthesis of an octabenzo [12] cyclacene based CNB (6) …

Conspectus Designing and synthesizing topologically unique molecules is a long-term
challenge for synthetic chemists. Classical polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a …

This article describes the most recent developments in the synthesis of three‐dimensional π‐
conjugated molecules and the elucidation of their properties made by our research group …

Cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) have attracted significant attention from theoretical, synthetic,
supramolecular and material chemists owing to their aesthetical structures. Since Jasti and …

This tutorial review summarizes recent progress in the design, synthesis, and multifunctional
properties of fully conjugated macrocyclic π-systems. We focus on the π-expanded …

A new strategy for the non‐chromatographic extraction of metallofullerenes from solutions of
arc‐processed raw soot is based on the size‐selective complexation with …
