Abstract:
Conjugated nanohoops allow studying the effect of cyclic conjugation and bending on the incorporated π-systems. To date, no such system containing antiaromatic units has been reported. We herein present [12]cycloparaphenylenes incorporating two dibenzo[a,e]pentalene units: [2]DBP[12]CPP nanohoops. Dibenzo[a,e]pentalene is a nonalternant hydrocarbon with antiaromatic character. The syntheses and optoelectronic properties of two different [2]DBP[12]CPP nanohoops with electronically modifying substituents are reported, accompanied by TDDFT calculations.

Conjugated Proteins
Nucleoproteins are protein complexes that contain nucleic acids, categorized as deoxyribonucleoproteins (DNPs) or ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) respectively. The nucleosome is a typical example of a DNP where nuclear DNA is associated with histone proteins. The major antigen for the Covid-19 virus SARS-CoV is an RNP that is critical...
