Phenalenyl, a zigzag-edged odd alternant hydrocarbon unit can be found in the graphene
nanosheet. Hückel molecular orbital calculations indicate the presence of a nonbonding …

A novel class of dibenzo-fused 1, 9-diaza-9a-boraphenalenes featuring zigzag edges with a
nitrogen–boron–nitrogen bonding pattern named NBN-dibenzophenalenes (NBN-DBPs) …

The discovery of room-temperature single-photon emitters (SPEs) hosted by two-
dimensional hexagonal boron nitride (2D hBN) has sparked intense research interest …

A bottom‐up approach toward stable and monodisperse segments of graphenes with a
nitrogen‐doped zigzag edge is introduced. Exemplified by the so far unprecedented …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are intermediates in the formation of soot particles
and interstellar grains. However, their formation mechanisms in combustion and interstellar …

Open-shell phenalenyl chemistry started more than half a century back, and the first solid-
state phenalenyl radical was realized only 15 years ago highlighting the synthetic …

For the last few decades, the Hydrogen-Abstraction/aCetylene-Addition (HACA) mechanism
has been fundamental in aiding our understanding of the source of polycyclic aromatic …

Since the early Hückel molecular orbital (HMO) calculations in 1950, it has been well known
that the odd alternant hydrocarbon (OAH), the phenalenyl (PLY) system, can exist in three …

Neutral open-shell molecules, in which spin density is delocalized through a helical
conjugated backbone, hold promise as models for investigating phenomena arising from the …

Stable phenalenyl radicals have great potential as the basis for new materials for
applications in the field of molecular electronics. In particular, electronically stabilized …
