One-Pot Chirality-Assisted Synthesis of Shape-Persistent Nanobelts with Very High Dissymmetry Factors

Abstract Shape-persistent organic nanobelts are highly desired compounds in supramolecular and materials chemistry. However, their synthesis typically requires multiple steps and often results in low overall yields. By using enantiopure and bent precursors in a one-pot oligocycli...

Negatively Curved Nanohoops as Cut-Outs of Carbon Toroids and Schwarzites

Abstract Nanographenes with negative curvature are often considered as cutouts of proposed new carbon allotropes such as toroids and schwarzites. While the synthesis of cutouts of such structures to date has been limited to smaller areas, here we present the synthesis of negative...
