Synthesis of a Stable Crystalline Dibenzopentacene Triplet Diradical via a Protection–Oxidation–Protection Strategy

ABSTRACT The synthesis of triplet‐ground‐state 1,14:11,12‐dibenzopentacene (DP) has been sought after for over 60 years, but the isolation of stable derivatives in crystalline form has been unsuccessful. Herein, we report the synthesis and first single‐crystal isolation of a stab...
