Abstract
Formation of carbon propeller-like molecules (CPLMs) from starphenes on a graphene substrate under electron irradiation with about 100% yield is observed in molecular dynamics simulations using the REBO-1990EVC_CH potential and CompuTEM algorithm. A CPLM consists of three carbon atomic chains connected to the central hexagon and is formed as a result of the spontaneous breaking of bonds between zigzag atomic rows in starphene arms after hydrogen removal by electron impacts. In the absence of the substrate, the CPLM yield is slightly decreased due to sticking between forming chains, while the formation time is increased threefold. The increase of the kinetic electron energy from 45 to 80 keV has no effect on the CPLM formation. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations performed show the stability of CPLMs with respect to the formation of new bonds between carbon atoms in the chains. DFT calculations using the accurate hybrid B3LYP functional provide an insight into the electronic structure of these new molecules.

Abstract
Cyclic porphyrin oligomers have been studied as models for photosynthetic light-harvesting antenna complexes and as potential receptors for supramolecular chemistry. Here, we report the synthesis of unprecedented β,β-directly linked cyclic zinc porphyrin oligomers, the trimer (CP3) and tetramer (CP4), by Yamamoto coupling of a 2,3-dibromoporphyrin precursor. Their three-dimensional structures were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The minimum-energy geometries of CP3 and CP4 have propeller and saddle shapes, respectively, as calculated using density functional theory. Their different geometries result in distinct photophysical and electrochemical properties. The smaller dihedral angles between the porphyrin units in CP3, compared with CP4, result in stronger π-conjugation, splitting the ultraviolet-vis absorption bands and shifting them to longer wavelengths. Analysis of the crystallographic bond lengths indicates that the central benzene ring of the CP3 is partially aromatic [harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA) 0.52], whereas the central cyclooctatetraene ring of the CP4 is non-aromatic (HOMA -0.02). The saddle-shaped structure of CP4 makes it a ditopic receptor for fullerenes, with affinity constants of (1.1 ± 0.4) × 105 M-1 for C70 and (2.2 ± 0.1) × 104 M-1 for C60, respectively, in toluene solution at 298 K. The formation of a 1:2 complex with C60 is confirmed by NMR titration and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
Sixfold TIPS‐ethynylation combined with fourfold bromination of the armchair edges furnishes a long‐lived, soluble heptacene; π‐extension via Stille coupling accesses a persistent tetrabenzononacene. Both types of acenes were stabilized best by double TIPS‐ethynylation on every other benzene ring. Tetrabromoheptacene is an ambipolar transistor material (up to 0.036 cm2 V−1 s−1 n‐channel), which was corroborated by generation of its monoanion and monocation.

Abstract
A large dissymmetric starphene molecule, the tetrabenzo[a,c,u,w]naphtho[2,3-l]nonaphene, was obtained by first preparing a soluble precursor which was then sublimated on a Au(111) surface in an ultra-high vacuum. In a second step, controlled annealings from 200 °C to 275 °C initiated two successive cyclodehydrogenation steps with the formation of 3 new carbon-carbon bonds. A second conformer was also stable enough during the annealing step to give another compound in similar yield, the benzodibenzo[7,8,9,10]naphthaceno[2,1-h]phenanthro[9,10-p]hexaphene. The formation of this more-hindered species stresses the importance of strong molecule-surface interactions during the cyclodehydrogenations steps of these large polyaromatic hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Acepleiadylene (APD), a nonbenzenoid nonalternant isomer of pyrene, exhibits different electronic properties from pyrene, but has been rarely studied since its first synthesis in 1956, probably due to the difficulties in synthesis and further derivatization. In this work, we revisited this long-known compound and developed a new two-step synthetic route to efficiently access APD on the gram scale. Theoretical and experimental characterizations elucidated the unique properties of APD as compared with its benzenoid isomer pyrene, particularly revealing its dipolar structure with a narrow optical gap. The functionalization of APD was demonstrated for the first time, providing doubly brominated APD as a key precursor for further π-extension. As a proof of concept, a π-extended APD and a cyclotrimer nanographene (C48H24) were constructed, opening up new avenues to nonbenzenoid nanographenes with low HOMO-LUMO gaps.

Abstract
Starphenes are attractive compounds due to their characteristic physicochemical properties that are inherited from acenes, making them interesting compounds for organic electronics and optics. However, the instability and low solubility of larger starphene homologs make their synthesis extremely challenging. Herein, we present a new strategy leading to pristine [16]starphene in preparative scale. Our approach is based on a synthesis of a carbonyl-protected starphene precursor that is thermally converted in a solid-state form to the neat [16]starphene, which is then characterised with a variety of analytical methods, such as 13 C CP-MAS NMR, TGA, MS MALDI, UV/Vis and FTIR spectroscopy. Furthermore, high-resolution STM experiments unambiguously confirm its expected structure and reveal a moderate electronic delocalisation between the pentacene arms. Nucleus-independent chemical shifts NICS(1) are also calculated to survey its aromatic character.

Abstract
PAHs (polycyclic aromatics hydrocarbons), the compound group that contains perylene and its derivatives, including functionalized ones, have attracted a great deal of interest in many fields of science and modern technology. This review presents all of the research devoted to modifications of PAHs that are realized via the Diels–Alder (DA) cycloaddition of various dienophiles to the bay regions of PAHs, leading to the π-extension of the starting molecule. This type of annulative π-extension (APEX) strategy has emerged as a powerful and efficient synthetic method for the construction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their functionalized derivatives, nanographenes, and π-extended fused heteroarenes. Then, [4 + 2] cycloadditions of ethylenic dienophiles, -N=N-, i.e., diazo-dienophiles and acetylenic dienophiles, are presented. This subject is discussed from the organic synthesis point of view but supported by theoretical calculations. The possible applications of DA cycloaddition to PAH bay regions in various science and technology areas, and the prospects for the development of this synthetic method, are also discussed.

Abstract
In recent years, synthetic transformations based on aryne chemistry have become particularly popular, mostly due to the spread of methods to generate these highly reactive intermediates in a controlled manner under mild reaction conditions. In fact, aryne cycloadditions such as the Diels-Alder reaction are nowadays widely used for the efficient preparation of polycyclic aromatic compounds. In 1998, our group discovered that arynes can undergo transition metal-catalyzed reactions, a finding that opened new perspectives in aryne chemistry. In particular, Pd-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of arynes allowed the straightforward synthesis of triphenylene derivatives such as starphenes or cloverphenes. We found that this reaction is compatible with different substituents and sterically demanding arynes as starting materials. This transformation is especially useful to increase the molecular complexity in one single step, transforming molecules formed by n cycles in structures with 3n + 1 cycles. In fact, we took advantage of this protocol to prepare a large variety of sterically congested polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as helicenes or twisted polyarenes. Soon after the discovery of the reaction, the co-cyclotrimerization of arynes with other reaction partners, such as electron deficient alkynes, significantly expanded the potential of this transformation. Also the use of catalysts based on alternative metals besides Pd (e.g., Ni, Cu, Au) or the use of other strained intermediates such as cycloalkynes or cycloallenes added value to this reaction. In addition, we realized that the Pd-catalyzed aryne cyclotrimerization reaction is particularly useful for the bottom-up preparation of well-defined nanographenes by chemical methods. Although the extreme insolubility of these planar nanographenes hampered their manipulation and characterization by conventional methods, recent advances in single molecule on-surface characterization by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with functionalized tips under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions, permitted the impressive visualization of these nanographenes with submolecular resolution, together with the examination of the corresponding molecular orbital densities. Moreover, arynes have been shown to possess a rich on-surface chemistry. In particular, arynes have been generated and studied on-surface, showing that the reactivity is preserved even at cryogenic temperatures. On-surface aryne cyclotrimerization was also demonstrated to obtain large starphene derivatives. Therefore, it is expected that the combination of aryne cycloadditions and on-surface synthesis will provide notable findings in the near future, including the "à la carte" preparation of graphene materials or the synthesis of elusive molecules with unique properties.

Selective access to either a doubly boron-doped tetrabenzopentacene or an oxadiborepin from the same precursor. Chem Sci 2019; 10:9017-9027.

Abstract
Depending on the solvent, a brominated arylborane gave the multiple helicene B2-TBPA (pyridine) or the oxadiborepin ODBE (THF) after intramolecular Yamamoto coupling.
The well-known red emitter tetrabenzo[de,hi,op,st]pentacene (TBPA) has been transformed into a bright blue emitter (B2-TBPA; λem = 472 nm; c-hexane) via substitutional doping with two boron atoms. In contrast to the electron-rich TBPA, which forms endo-peroxides with O2 under daylight, the benchtop-stable B2-TBPA is a good electron acceptor and undergoes reversible reduction at a moderate half-wave potential of E1/2 = –1.73 V (vs. FcH/FcH+; THF). Although the size of B2-TBPA falls within the nanoscale, the helically twisted compound readily dissolves in c-hexane and does not require solubilizing substituents. The synthesis of B2-TBPA is based on the nickel-mediated Yamamoto-type dehalogenation of tetrabrominated 9,10-di(naphth-1-yl)-9,10-dihydro-9,10-diboraanthracene. This intramolecular C–C heterocoupling reaction shows a remarkable solvent dependence: B2-TBPA forms only in pyridine (79% yield), whereas an oxadiborepin is obtained from THF solutions (ODBE, 81%; the reaction mixture is quenched with air in both cases). Insight into the corresponding reaction mechanism was gained from the isolation of intermediates and an investigation of their chemical properties. ODBE is an interesting blue emitter in its own right. Furthermore, it can be ring-opened with excess BBr3 at the B–O–B moiety to afford a dimeric borabenzo[de]anthracene.

Abstract
Recent synthetic studies on the organic molecules tetracene and pentacene have found certain dimers and oligomers to exhibit an intense absorption in the visible region of the spectrum that is not present in the monomer or many previously studied dimers. In this article we combine experimental synthesis with electronic structure theory and spectral computation to show that this absorption arises from an otherwise dark charge-transfer excitation "borrowing intensity" from an intense UV excitation. Further, by characterizing the role of relevant monomer molecular orbitals, we arrive at a design principle that allows us to predict the presence or absence of an additional absorption based on the bonding geometry of the dimer. We find this rule correctly explains the spectra of a wide range of acene derivatives and solves an unexplained structure-spectrum phenomenon first observed over 70 years ago. These results pave the way for the design of highly absorbent chromophores with applications ranging from photovoltaics to liquid crystals.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), especially three branchphene benzocyclotrimers represent a series of molecules with intriguing physical and chemical properties. Benzocyclotrimers are also important precursors to construct fullerenes and graphenes. In this article, we review the recent progress in the preparation methods of π-conjugated benzocyclotrimers. In particular, cyclotrimerization reactions to construct varying shaped and edged benzocyclotrimers are illustrated. Various typical characterization methods for these materials, such as variable-temperature 1 H-NMR, single crystal X-ray analysis, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and atomic force microscope (AFM) measurements are included for discussion.

Abstract
By employing gold catalysis, starting from dialkynylated acenes a series of novel un-symmetrical aceno-annulated dibenzopentalenes has been prepared. The achieved yields range from 62-68 %. The fused systems contain naphthalene, anthracene, tetracene, and pentacene units. All new compounds are soluble and stable under standard conditions. The optical properties of the systems are dominated by the dibenzopentalene core for the smaller representatives, while for the anthracene-pentacene-based aceno-benzopentalenes the optical properties of the acene group dominates. Preliminary morphology tests on thin films showed a reverse trend between crystal size and molecule size.

Abstract
Developing new organic conjugated materials for high density memory devices is highly desirable. In this research, a novel donor-acceptor-type twelve-ring fused twistheteroacene, 2,7,19,24-tetra-tert-butyl-13,30-didodecyl-9,17,26,34-tetraphenyl benzo[8',9']triphenyleno[2',3':7,8]dibenzo[b,e][1,4]dioxino[1,2,3,4-lmn]dibenzo[6',7':10',11']tetraceno[2',3':5,6][1,4]dioxino[2,3-f][3,8]phenanthroline-12,14,29,31(13H,30H)-tetraone (DPyN) has been synthesized and characterized. It displays high thermal stability, possesses a broad absorption band centered at 510 and 538 nm, and emits red fluorescence in organic solvents. A solution-processed memory device with DPyN as an active element shows an excellent memory performance with an ON/OFF current ratio of 103.46 :1 and a threshold voltage of -2.44 V.

Abstract
The high-yield synthesis of a boron-doped [4]helicene was achieved through a Ni-mediated Yamamoto C-C-coupling reaction; the moderate distortion of the molecular scaffold confers excellent solubility to the air- and water-stable green luminophore.
