The active template synthesis of mechanically interlocked molecular architectures exploits
the dual ability of various structural elements (metals or, in the case of metal-free active …

Extended conjugated polyynes provide models for the elusive sp carbon polymer carbyne,
but progress has been hampered by numerous synthetic challenges. Stabilities appear to be …

Carbon materials have long been a subject of study, offering diverse properties based on
their hybridized structures. Except sp 2-hybridized graphene and carbon nanotubes, the …

Abstract “Improbable” rotaxanes consisting of interlocked conjugated components represent
non‐trivial synthetic targets, not to mention those with all‐benzene scaffolds. Herein, a …

Linear carbon chains (LCCs), synthesized using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as templates,
exhibit intriguing properties that are not dependent on their length. Consequently, LCCs can …

In nature, molecular environments in proteins can sterically protect and stabilize reactive
species such as organic radicals through non-covalent interactions. Here, we report a near …

Among the known aromatic N-heterocycles, pyrroles are significant and versatile privileged
components in pharmacologically relevant molecules. Herein, we demonstrate a protocol for …

An overview of bis (trialkylsilyl) polyynediyl adducts R 3 Si (Ctriple bondC) n SiR 3 with n≥ 5
is followed by syntheses of TESC x TES where x= 8, 12, 16, and 24 (TES= SiEt 3; x= 2n). In a …

π-Conjugated chiral macrocycles show fascinating structures and are of interests in
synthetic chemistry and material science. Herein, we describe a new series of electron-rich …

Reactions of the title complexes and n-BuLi (1.5 equiv,–45° C) afford functional equivalents
of the deprotonated species trans-(C6F5)(p-tol3P) 2Pt (C≡ C) n Li (n= 2–4), as assayed by …
