A Nonbenzenoid 3D Nanographene Containing 5/6/7/8-Membered Rings
Abstract
Nanographenes (NGs) have attracted continuous attention in recent years owing to their opened bandgaps and optoelectronic applications. Especially, nonbenzenoid NGs containing non-six-membered rings have been developed rapidly due to their unique structures and properties. In this work, we employ nonbenzenoid acepleiadylene (APD) and the cyclooctatetraene (COT) moiety to construct the first three-dimensional (3D) NG containing 5/6/7/8-membered rings in one molecule (COT-APD). The calculated results prove that COT-APD has a saddle-like configuration similar to that of other COT-type molecules. Each APD segment in COT-APD keeps the inherent aromaticity of the APD moiety. Compared with other COT-type molecules, COT-APD shows a narrower bandgap, which indicates the superiority of APD in bandgap regulation. Furthermore, four reversible reductive waves are observed in electrochemical characterizations, demonstrating the excellent electron-accepting capability of COT-APD.

- 9 Cyclooctatetraacepleiadylene (COT-APD) was prepared by the Yamamoto coupling of compound 3. A typical procedure for the synthesis of COT-APD is described as follows. To a Schlenk flask charged with compound 3 (50.4 mg, 0.0900 mmol), Ni(cod)2 (49.5 mg, 0.180 mmol), 1, 5-cyclooctadiene (19.5 mg, 0.180 mmol) and 2, 2′-bipyridine (28.1 mg, 0.180 mmol) was added dioxane (4.5 mL) under argon. Then the mixture was heated to 100 °C for 16 h. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was filtrated and the residue was sequentially washed by MeOH, HCl (2 M), EtOH, and CH2Cl2. The obtained solid was dried in vacuo to afford 15.9 mg (yield: 44%) of COT-APD as a black solid. 1HNMR (400 MHz, CS2/CDCl3, 297 K, ppm) δ 8.300 (d, J = 7.5 Hz, 8H), 7.961 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, 8H), 7.793 – 7.710 (m, 8H), 6.958–6.881 (m, 8H). 13CNMR (101 MHz, CS2/CDCl3, 297 K, ppm) δ 137.98, 136.96, 135.49, 127.54, 127.06, 126.68.
