Substituent-induced modulation of proaromaticity in benzo-fused fluorenophenalene exhibiting a low-lying LUMO
{{output}}
Fluorenophenalene (FP) is an underexplored proaromatic polycyclic hydrocarbon. Herein, we report the synthesis of benzo-fused FPs bearing aryls (mesityl, C6H2F3 and C6F5) of varying electronic character as apical substituents of the cyclopenta-unit with large ... ...
