Pentaindenocorannulene and Tetraindenocorannulene: New Aromatic Hydrocarbon π Systems with Curvatures Surpassing That of C.

The article reports the new aromatic π systems, Pentaindenocorannulene and Tetraindenocorannulene. The procedures in the syntheses of the two new geodesic polyarenes are the same except in their starting organic compounds. The X-ray crystal structures and the degree of pyramidization were also exami...
