  • Electronic Properties of Kekulenet
    MOLECULAR PHYSICS, 1982, VOL. 46, No.5, 1141-1153 Electronic properties of kekulenet by D. SCHWEITZER and K. H. HAUSSER Abt. Molekulare Physik, Max-Planck-Institut, Jahn-StraBe 29, 6900 Heidelberg, Germany and H. VOGLER, F. DIEDERICH and H. A. STAAB Abt. Organische Chemie, Max-Planck-Institut, Jahn-StraBe 29, 6900 Heidelberg, Germany (Received S January 1982; accepted 20 March 1982) The fluorescence and phosphorescence of kekulene in a host matrix of polycrystalline tetrachlorobenzene are investigated, together with the triplet zero field splitting parameters IDI and lEI obtained by ODMR in zero field. The D value is also calculated within a semi-empirical 1T-theory and compared with experiment. It could be shown that the triplet state energies of a number of different sites of kekulene in the host matrix and the zero field splitting parameters are related, in first order, by spin orbit interaction. 1. INTRODUCTION Kekulene [1, 2] is the first example of a new class of aromatic compounds in which the annelation of six-membered rings leads to a cyclic system enclosing a cavity lined with hydrogen atoms (figure 1). On the basis of the X-ray structure analysis [2] the sextet notation for kekulene shown in figure 1 is undoubtedly the best representation of the actual bonding situation out of the 200 possible structures with different arrangements of double and single bonds which can be formulated [3]. The X-ray structure analysis has further shown that kekulene has an almost perfect planar structure in the ground state (the maximum deviation of carbon atoms from the mean plane through the 48 carbon atoms is only 7 pm).

Cw~ Division of Physical Chemistry, The University of Trondheim, N-7034 Trondheim-NTH, Norway Abstract--A coronoid is a "benzenoid with a hole". Some aspects of the studies of topological properties of benzenoids and coronoids are reviewed. The survey includes the search for concealed non-Kekulrans, multiple zigzag chains and primitive coronoids. Enumerations and classifications of polybexes (i.e. benzenoids and coronoids) are treated in some details. The original contributions of the present work are concentrated upon polyhexes with hexagonal symmetry. Benzenoids with hexagonal symmetry are referred to as "snowflakes". The forms of all snowflakes with D~ symmetry and h (the number of hexagons) ~< 55 are displayed as computer-generated drawings. In addition, the concealed non-Kekulrans with h = 61 and h = 67 are shown. Coronoids with hexagonal symmetry represent another main subject of this work. Single coronoids in general are classified into regular including primitive, half essentially disconnected, essentially discon- nected and non-Kekulran systems. The smallest members of all these categories among coronoids with D~ symmetry are displayed, viz. h ~< 36 for the primitive, h ~< 54 for the non-Kekulran systems, and h ~< 30 for the other categories. Combinatorial formulas of K (the number of Kekul6 structures) for some classes of coronoids with hexagonal symmetry are given, including a complete solution for the primitive systems belonging to D~ or C~.

Virtasen aukio 1, FIN-00014 Helsinki, Finland. Abstract The π-contribution to the magnetically induced current densities, ring-current strengths, and induced magnetic fields of large planar molecules (as kekulene) and three-dimensional molecules (as [10]cyclophenacene and chiral toroidal nanotubes C2016 and C2196) have been computed using the pseudo-π model with the gauge-including magnetically induced currents method. The magnetic response analysis shows that π-electrons are the main actors of the electron delocalization in carbon systems regardless of their size, suggesting that the π- component of the ring-current strengths can be used for assessing the aromatic character of this kind of molecules. Computations using the pseudo-π model yield current densities and induced magnetic fields that are not contaminated by contributions from core and σ-electrons allowing investigations of large molecular structures as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and cylindrical or toroidal carbon nanotubes. 1 Introduction In the presence of an external magnetic field, the interaction

This molecule has essentially no superaromatic stabilization energy (SSE) and can be viewed as an ideal nonsuperaromatic macrocycle. SSEs for kekulene and other cycloarenes are also very small. In these hydrocarbons, a macrocycle formed by fused benzene rings effectively suppresses not only the aromaticity inherent in macrocyclic (4n+2)-site conjugation circuits but also the antiaromaticity inherent in macrocyclic (4n±1)-site circuits. Comparative study of superaromaticity in multilayered coronoid hydro- carbons revealed that not only SSE but also the HOMO contribution to SSE is minimized in odd-layered coronoids. ■ INTRODUCTION superaromaticity of many different macrocycles, such as fi cycloarenes, cyclacenes, carbon nanotubes, and porphyr- Cycloarenes are de ned as comprising many annelated benzene 14,25−38 rings that form a macrocycle with inward-pointing C−H ins.

  • A Synthetic Route to Polymeric Carbohelicenes and Cyclic Derivatives
    University of Nevada, Reno A Synthetic Route to Polymeric Carbohelicenes and Cyclic Derivatives A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry By William B. Thompson Dr. Benjamin T. King/Thesis Advisor December, 2014 i Abstract The King group’s interest is in the synthesis of polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for their wide range of applications in materials, electronics, and mechanical properties.1 The primary focus of my own synthetic efforts in PAHs involves the production of polymeric carbohelicenes and their cyclic derivatives. Traditional methods for synthesizing helicenes structure use cross coupling of two phenanthrenes with desired functional groups. The final synthetic step usually involves a single reaction to close the ring and complete the helicenes such as Diels-Alder,2 carbenoid couplings,3or photocyclisation.4 Our own approach to synthesizing carbohelicenes is to synthesize a polymer precursor, poly{4,6-di((1E)-(2-2H)-propenyl])-m-phenylene), followed by a ring closing metathesis reaction (RCM) to stitch up the helicene. Our route is eight synthetic steps starting from commercially available m-xyene. The sequential steps involve bromination of m-xylene by electrophilic aromatic substitution, with a 70-74% yield, followed by a benzylic bromination with a 75-78% yield. Next a hydrolysis is performed using ZnBr2 in acetic acid yielding the dialdehyde in 75-80%. A double Wittig reaction follows using ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide to obtain on average 65% yield of a mixture of EE, EZ, and ZZ isomers. Through optimization, we obtained a 95:5:0 ratio of our Wittig product (EE, EZ, and ZZ, checked by GC-MS).

In addition, we out- line briefly the various activities of Trinajsti} within the chemical community of Croatia. As can be seen, his scientific work has been very productive and has not abated despite the hostili- Key words ties towards the Chemical Graph Theory in certain chemical circles over the past 30 years. On chemical graph theory the contrary, Trinajsti} continued, widened the areas of his research interest, which started with history of chemical graph theory investigating the close relationship between Graph Theory and HMO, and demonstrated the history of Croatian chemistry importance of Chemical Graph Theory for chemistry. In more than one way he has proven the mathematical chemistry opponents of Chemical Graph Theory wrong, though some continue to fail to recognize the im- scientific biography portance of Graph Theory in Chemistry. INTRODUCTION not so easy to solve. Let us illustrate this with The First Theorem of Graph Theory: We will review the selected work of Nenad Trinajsti} in Any graph contains an even number of vertices of the area of Chemical Graph Theory, but first of all we odd degree.
