Abstract
Indenofluorenes are non-benzenoid conjugated hydrocarbons that have received great interest owing to their unusual electronic structure and potential applications in nonlinear optics and photovoltaics. Here we report the generation of unsubstituted indeno[1,2-a]fluorene on various surfaces by the cleavage of two C-H bonds in 7,12-dihydroindeno[1,2-a]fluorene through voltage pulses applied by the tip of a combined scanning tunnelling microscope and atomic force microscope. On bilayer NaCl on Au(111), indeno[1,2-a]fluorene is in the neutral charge state, but it exhibits charge bistability between neutral and anionic states on the lower-workfunction surfaces of bilayer NaCl on Ag(111) and Cu(111). In the neutral state, indeno[1,2-a]fluorene exhibits one of two ground states: an open-shell π-diradical state, predicted to be a triplet by density functional and multireference many-body perturbation theory calculations, or a closed-shell state with a para-quinodimethane moiety in the as-indacene core. We observe switching between open- and closed-shell states of a single molecule by changing its adsorption site on NaCl.

Abstract
π-Conjugated macrocycles behave differently from analogous linear chains because their electronic wavefunctions resemble a quantum particle on a ring, leading to aromaticity or anti-aromaticity. [18]Annulene, (CH)18, is the archetypal non-benzenoid aromatic hydrocarbon. Molecules with circuits of 4n + 2 π electrons, such as [18]annulene (n = 4), are aromatic, with enhanced stability and diatropic ring currents (magnetic shielding inside the ring), whereas those with 4n π electrons, such as the dianion of [18]annulene, are expected to be anti-aromatic and exhibit the opposite behaviour. Here we use 1H NMR spectroscopy to re-evaluate the structure of the [18]annulene dianion. We also show that it can be reduced further to an aromatic tetraanion, which has the same shape as the dianion. The crystal structure of the tetraanion lithium salt confirms its geometry and reveals a metallocene-like sandwich, with five Li+ cations intercalated between two [18]annulene tetraanions. We also report a heteroleptic sandwich, with [18]annulene and corannulene tetraanion decks.

Abstract
Zinc porphene is a two-dimensional material made of fully fused zinc porphyrins in a tetragonal lattice. It has a fully conjugated π-system, making it similar to graphene. Zinc porphene has recently been synthesized, and a combination of rough conductivity measurements and infrared and Raman spectroscopies all suggested that it is a semiconductor (Magnera, T.F. et al. Porphene and Porphite as Porphyrin Analogs of Graphene and Graphite, Nat. Commun.2023, 14, 6308). This is in contrast with all previous predictions of its electronic structure, which indicated metallic conductivity. We show that the gap-opening in zinc porphene is caused by a Peierls distortion of its unit cell from square to rectangular, thus giving the first account of its electronic structure in agreement with the experiment. Accounting for this distortion requires proper treatment of electron delocalization, which can be done using hybrid functionals with a substantial amount of exact exchange. Such a functional, PBE38, is then applied to predict the properties of many first transition row metalloporphenes, some of which have already been prepared. We find that changing the metal strongly affects the electronic structure of metalloporphenes, resulting in a rich variety of both metallic conductors and semiconductors, which may be of great interest to molecular electronics and spintronics. Properties of these materials are mostly governed by the extent of the Peierls distortion and the number of electrons in their π-system, analogous to changes in aromaticity observed in cyclic conjugated molecules upon oxidation or reduction. These results give an account of how the concept of antiaromaticity can be extended to periodic systems.

Abstract
Dielectric spectroscopy has been used to determine the barriers of rotation of surface-mounted fullerenes (2.3 ± 0.1 and 4.3 ± 0.1 kcal mol-1). In order to achieve this, a C60 derivative equipped with an anchoring group designed to form a surface inclusion with the hexagonal form of tris(o-phenylenedioxy)cyclotriphosphazene (TPP) has been synthesized. Solid-state NMR analysis revealed that approximately 50% of the surface-mounted molecules have a chemical environment different from the others suggesting two distinct insertion modes. These observations correlate with results of DFT calculations.

Abstract
We assembled photoresponsive mono- and bilayer systems with well-defined properties from rod-shaped molecules equipped with different photoswitches. Using properly chosen chromophores (diarylethene-based switch and unidirectional light-driven molecular motor), we then selectively targeted layers made of the same types of photoswitches using appropriate monochromatic light. UV-vis analysis confirmed smooth and unrestricted photoisomerization. To achieve this, we synthesized a new class of triptycene-based molecular pedestals adept at forming sturdy Langmuir-Blodgett films on a water-air interface. The films were smoothly transferred to gold and quartz surfaces. Repeated deposition afforded bilayer systems: one layer containing diarylethene-based photoswitches and the other a unidirectional light-driven molecular motor. Structural analysis of both mono- and bilayer systems revealed the molecules to be tilted with carboxylic functions pointing to the surface. At least two different polymorphs differing in monolayer thickness and tilt angle (~40° and ~60°) were identified on the gold surface.

Abstract
Aromaticity is typically regarded as an intrinsic property of a molecule, correlated with electron delocalization, stability, and other properties. Small variations in the molecular geometry usually result in small changes in aromaticity, in line with Hammond's postulate. For example, introducing bond-length alternation in benzene and square cyclobutadiene by modulating the geometry along the Kekulé vibration gradually decreases the magnitude of their ring currents, making them less aromatic and less antiaromatic, respectively. A sign change in the ring current, corresponding to a reversal of aromaticity, typically requires a gross perturbation such as electronic excitation, addition or removal of two electrons, or a dramatic change in the molecular geometry. Here, we use multireference calculations to show how movement along the Kekulé vibration, which controls bond-length alternation, induces a sudden reversal in the ring current of cyclo[16]carbon, C16. This reversal occurs when the two orthogonal π systems of C16 sustain opposing currents. These results are rationalized by a Hückel model which includes bond-length alternation, and which is combined with a minimal model accounting for orbital contributions to the ring current. Finally, we successfully describe the electronic structure of C16 with a "divide-and-conquer" approach suitable for execution on a quantum computer.

Abstract
Synthetic carbon allotropes such as graphene1, carbon nanotubes2 and fullerenes3 have revolutionized materials science and led to new technologies. Many hypothetical carbon allotropes have been discussed4, but few have been studied experimentally. Recently, unconventional synthetic strategies such as dynamic covalent chemistry5 and on-surface synthesis6 have been used to create new forms of carbon, including γ-graphyne7, fullerene polymers8, biphenylene networks9 and cyclocarbons10,11. Cyclo[N]carbons are molecular rings consisting of N carbon atoms12,13; the three that have been reported to date (N = 10, 14 and 18)10,11 are doubly aromatic, which prompts the question: is it possible to prepare doubly anti-aromatic versions? Here we report the synthesis and characterization of an anti-aromatic carbon allotrope, cyclo[16]carbon, by using tip-induced on-surface chemistry6. In addition to structural information from atomic force microscopy, we probed its electronic structure by recording orbital density maps14 with scanning tunnelling microscopy. The observation of bond-length alternation in cyclo[16]carbon confirms its double anti-aromaticity, in concordance with theory. The simple structure of C16 renders it an interesting model system for studying the limits of aromaticity, and its high reactivity makes it a promising precursor to novel carbon allotropes15.

Abstract
Two-dimensional materials have unusual properties and promise applications in nanoelectronics, spintronics, photonics, (electro)catalysis, separations, and elsewhere. Most are inorganic and their properties are difficult to tune. Here we report the preparation of Zn porphene, a member of the previously only hypothetical organic metalloporphene family. Similar to graphene, these also are fully conjugated two-dimensional polymers, but are composed of fused metalloporphyrin rings. Zn porphene is synthesized on water surface by two-dimensional oxidative polymerization of a Langmuir layer of Zn porphyrin with K2IrCl6, reminiscent of known one-dimensional polymerization of pyrroles. It is transferable to other substrates and bridges μm-sized pits. Contrary to previous theoretical predictions of metallic conductivity, it is a p-type semiconductor due to a predicted Peierls distortion of its unit cell from square to rectangular, analogous to the appearance of bond-length alternation in antiaromatic molecules. The observed reversible insertion of various metal ions, possibly carrying a fifth or sixth ligand, promises tunability and even patterning of circuits on an atomic canvas without removing any π centers from conjugation.

Abstract
π-Conjugated nanoribbons attract interest because of their unusual electronic structures and charge-transport behavior. Here, we report the synthesis of a series of fully edge-fused porphyrin-anthracene oligomeric ribbons (dimer and trimer), together with a computational study of the corresponding infinite polymer. The porphyrin dimer and trimer were synthesized in high yield, via oxidative cyclodehydrogenation of singly linked precursors, using 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TfOH). The crystal structure of the dimer shows that the central π-system is flat, with a slight S-shaped wave distortion at each porphyrin terminal. The extended π-conjugation causes a dramatic red-shift in the absorption spectra: the absorption maxima of the fused dimer and trimer appear at 1188 nm and 1642 nm, respectively (for the nickel complexes dissolved in toluene). The coordinated metal in the dimer was changed from Ni to Mg, using p-tolylmagnesium bromide, providing access to free-base and Zn complexes. These results open a versatile avenue to longer π-conjugated nanoribbons with integrated metalloporphyrin units.

Abstract
Three symmetrically and three unsymmetrically substituted cibalackrot (7,14-diphenyldiindolo[3,2,1-de:3',2',1'-ij][1,5]naphthyridine-6,13-dione, 1) dyes carrying two derivatized phenyl rings have been synthesized as candidates for molecular electronics and especially for singlet fission, a process of interest for solar energy conversion. Solution measurements provided singlet and triplet excitation energies and fluorescence yields and lifetimes; conformational properties were analyzed computationally. The molecular properties are close to ideal for singlet fission. However, crystal structures, obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), are rather similar to those of the polymorphs of solid 1, in which the formation of a charge-separated state followed by intersystem crossing, complemented with excimer formation, outcompetes singlet fission. Results of calculations by the approximate SIMPLE method suggest which ones among the solid derivatives are the best candidates for singlet fission, but it appears difficult to change the crystal packing in a desirable direction. We also describe the preparation of three specifically deuteriated versions of 1, expected to help sort out the mechanism of fast intersystem crossing in its charge-separated state.

Abstract
Herein, we report radical chlorination of cubane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid leading preferentially to one monochlorinated cubane dicarboxylate (ca. 70%) that is accompanied by four dichlorinated derivatives (ca. 20% in total). The exact positions of the chlorine atoms have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction of the corresponding single crystals. The acidity constants of all dicarboxylic acids in water were determined by capillary electrophoresis (3.17 ± 0.04 and 4.09 ± 0.05 for monochlorinated and ca. 2.71 ± 0.05 and 3.75 ± 0.05 for dichlorinated cubanes). All chlorinated derivatives as well as the parent diacid showed high thermal stability (decomposition above 250 °C) as documented by differential scanning calorimetry. The probable reaction pathways leading to individual isomers were proposed, and the energies of individual transition states and intermediates were obtained using density functional theory calculations (B3LYP-D3BJ/6-311+G(d,p)). The relative strain energies for all newly prepared derivatives as well as for hypothetical hexahalogenated (fluorinated, chlorinated, brominated, and iodinated) derivatives of cubane-1,4-dicarboxylic acids were predicted using wavefunction theory methods. The hexafluorinated derivative was identified as the most strained compound (57.5 kcal/mol), and the relative strain decreased as the size of halogen atoms increased (23.7 for hexachloro, 16.7 for hexabromo, and 4.0 kcal/mol for the hexaiodo derivative).

Abstract
Herein we report the highly selective radical chlorination of 2,2-difluorobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid. Together with radical hydrodechlorination by TMS3SiH, four new bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane cages carrying two fluorine and one to three chlorine atoms in bridge positions have been obtained. The exact positions of all halogen atoms have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The acidity constants (pKa) for all new derivatives have been determined by capillary electrophoresis, and these experimental values show excellent agreement with pKas predicted by DFT methods. Extensive DFT calculations have been used to rationalize the selective formation of four out of nine possible F2Cl1-4 isomers of bridge-halogenated bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes and to obtain relative strain energies for all possible isomers.

Abstract
The solid-state formation of azodioxide polymers from aromatic dinitroso compounds with different spacer groups was used as a model reaction for a comprehensive analysis that included bulk-based, mechanistic, and isoconversional kinetic methods. Dinitroso species were prepared in situ from azodioxides by UV cleavage under cryogenic conditions, after which their thermally induced conversion to azodioxides was followed by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy. The obtained data were used to calculate activation parameters and determine the influence of the spacer on the kinetics. Isoconversional models suggest a distribution of activation energies, pointing to an important (topochemical) effect of the local environment on the reactivity. In general, bulk-based and isoconversional kinetic models gave poorer fits but produced mutually consistent rate parameters. Similar energies and entropies of activation were obtained with all three approaches, suggesting that they all describe the same underlying physical phenomena; that is, the polymerization by bond-making is the dominant process.

Abstract
We have examined the insertion of carbenes carrying leaving groups into the [nido-B11H13]2- dianion to form the [closo-1-CB11H12]- anion. The best procedure uses CF3SiMe3 and LiCl as the source of CF2. It is simple, convenient and scalable and proceeds with 70-90% yield. Density functional calculations have been used to develop a mechanistic proposal that accounts for the different behavior of CF2, requiring only one equivalent of base for successful conversion of Na[nido-B11H14]- to [closo-1-CB11H12]-, and CCl2 and CBr2, which require more.

Abstract
The reactions of N-benzyliminodiacetic acid (BnidaH2) and its para-substituted derivatives, namely N-(p-chlorobenzyl)iminodiacetic acid (p-ClBnidaH2), N-(p-nitrobenzyl)iminodiacetic acid (p-NO2BnidaH2), and N-(p-methoxybenzyl)iminodiacetic acid (p-MeOBnidaH2) with sodium tetrachloropalladate(II) were performed in aqueous solutions. Three new complexes [Pd(p-ClBnidaH)2]·2H2O (2), [Pd(p-NO2BnidaH)2]·2H2O (3), and [Pd(p-MeOBnidaH)2] (4) were prepared and characterized by infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses. The molecular geometry and infrared spectra of these three complexes, together with the previously synthesized [Pd(BnidaH)2]·2H2O (1a) and [Pd(BnidaH)2] (1b) were also modelled using density functional theory calculations at the BP86/6–311+G(d,p) level of theory with SDD pseudopotentials.
