This review summarizes recent advances in the chemistry of curved aromatic molecules. By
focusing on the key accomplishments of the last decade, we provide a general overview of …

Oxidative aromatic coupling occupies a fundamental place in the modern chemistry of
aromatic compounds. It is a method of choice for the assembly of large and bewildering …

Incorporating non‐hexagonal rings into polycyclic conjugated hydrocarbons (PCHs) can
significantly affect their electronic and optoelectronic properties and chemical reactivities …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been the subject of interdisciplinary research
in the fields of chemistry, physics, materials science, and biology. Notably, PAHs have drawn …

Nanographenes, or extended polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, have been attracting
increasing attention owing to their widespread applications in organic electronics. However …

Synthesis of buckybowls have stayed highly challenging due to the large structural strain
caused by curved π surface. In this paper, we report the synthesis and properties of two …

Rearrangements in Scholl reaction are mostly serendipitous. The design of molecular
precursors is what seems to guide the course of rearrangement. This review consolidates …

A core-expanded, pyrrole-fused azacoronene analogue containing two unusual N-doped
heptagons was obtained from commercially available octafluoronaphthalene and 3, 4 …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with hexagons/pentagons or hexagons/heptagons have
been intensively investigated in recent years, but those with simultaneous presence of …

Fullerene fragments, referred to as buckybowls, are garnering interest due to their distinctive
molecular shapes and optoelectronic properties. Here, we report the synthesis and …
