Stacked antiaromatic porphyrins [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
It has been proposed that stacking antiaromatic molecules can build three-dimensional aromaticity, but this claim has lacked experimental validation.

The principle underlying antiaromaticity

open access: yes, 2019
Aromaticity is one of the most widely used chemical concepts. Current definitions are purely phenomenological and relate symmetry, reactive stability and the occurence of molecular diamagnetic response currents.

An antiaromatic-walled nanospace [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2019
Over the past few decades, several molecular cages, hosts and nanoporous materials enclosing nanometre-sized cavities have been reported1-5, including coordination-driven nanocages6. Such nanocages have found widespread use in molecular recognition, separation, stabilization and the promotion of unusual chemical reactions, among other applications3-10.

Synthesis and Properties of Twisted and Helical Azulene Oligomers and Azulene‐Based Polycyclic Hydrocarbons

open access: yesChemistryOpen, 2023
The construction of 1,2‐position‐connected azulene oligomers was achieved. In the crystal packing structure of the terazulene, two molecules of (Ra)‐ and (Sa)‐configurations formed a pair.

On the antiaromatic–aromatic–antiaromatic transition of the stacked cyclobutadiene dimer

open access: yesPhysical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2023
We have studied the changes in the aromatic nature of two cyclobutadiene (C4H4) molecules on decreasing the intermolecular distance and approaching the cubane structure in a face-to-face fashion.

How do the Hückel and Baird Rules Fade away in Annulenes?

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Two of the most popular rules to characterize the aromaticity of molecules are those due to Hückel and Baird, which govern the aromaticity of singlet and triplet states.

Predicted Reversal in N-Methylazepine/N-Methyl-7-azanorcaradiene Equilibrium upon Formation of Their N-Oxides

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Density functional calculations and up to five different basis sets have been applied to the exploration of the structural, enthalpy and free energy changes upon conversion of the azepine to the corresponding N-oxide.

The application of aromaticity and antiaromaticity to reaction mechanisms

open access: yesFundamental Research, 2023
Aromaticity, in general, can promote a given reaction by stabilizing a transition state or a product via a mobility of π electrons in a cyclic structure.

Photochemical Uncaging of Aldehydes and Ketones via Photocyclization/Fragmentation Cascades of Enyne Alcohols: An Unusual Application for a Cycloaromatization Process

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
We utilized a cycloaromatization reaction driven by relief of excited state antiaromaticity to photouncage aldehydes and ketones. We developed several synthetic routes towards the synthesis of photocaged carbonyls as allylically substituted 3-(2 ...

Relief of excited-state antiaromaticity enables the smallest red emitter

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Commonly, large π-conjugated systems facilitate low-energy electronic transitions. Here, the authors demonstrate that the relief of excited-state antiaromaticity of the benzene core leads to large Stokes shifts, and allows the construction of emitters ...
