Simulating the nanomechanical response of cyclooctatetraene molecules on a graphene device [PDF]
We investigate the atomic and electronic structures of cyclooctatetraene (COT) molecules on graphene and analyze their dependence on external gate voltage using first-principles calculations.

Dihydrogen Activation by Antiaromatic Pentaarylboroles [PDF]
Facile metal-free splitting of molecular hydrogen (H(2)) is crucial for the utilization of H(2) without the need for toxic transition-metal-based catalysts. Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are a new class of hydrogen activators wherein interactions with both a Lewis acid and a Lewis base heterolytically disrupt the hydrogen-hydrogen bond.

Stabilization of the Benzene Radical Trianion in an Inverse‐Sandwich Yttrium Complex
A new type of benzene anion state is born: The unprecedented benzene radical trianion embedded in an inverse‐sandwich yttrium complex was synthesized by a one‐electron chemical reduction of its benzene dianion precursor using potassium graphite in the presence of [2.2.2]‐cryptand.

Shaping Antiaromatic π‐Systems by Metalation: Synthesis of a Bowl‐Shaped Antiaromatic Palladium Norcorrole [PDF]
AbstractThe synthesis of a bowl‐shaped antiaromatic molecule was achieved through the deformation of a planar antiaromatic porphyrinic π‐conjugation system by insertion of palladium into the small cavity of a metal‐free norcorrole. The bowl‐to‐bowl inversion dynamics of the antiaromatic Pd‐coordinated norcorrole was determined by variable‐temperature ...

Antiaromaticity in molecular assemblies and materials. [PDF]
Antiaromatic rings can be assembled into discrete or polymeric assemblies to explore emerging properties. This perspective compares antiaromatic rings as potential building blocks and covers reported antiaromatic ring assemblies.

The applicability of three-dimensional aromaticity in BiSnn- Zintl analogues [PDF]
Three-dimensional aromaticity is shown to play a role in the stability of deltahedral Zintl clusters and here we examine the connection between aromaticity and stability.

The correlation theory of the chemical bond [PDF]
The quantum mechanical description of the chemical bond is generally given in terms of delocalized bonding orbitals, or, alternatively, in terms of correlations of occupations of localised orbitals.

Competition Between Sextet Aromaticity and Cyclobutadiene Antiaromaticity within the Same Molecule: Location is Important [PDF]
The interplay between aromaticity and antiaromaticity is maximized in [n]phenylenes. In their smaller isomer sets, some isomers can be aromatic while others can be antiaromatic.
