Selectivity in tip-induced skeletal editing via heteroatom substitution
Shantanu Mishra, Rasmus Svensson, Valentina Malave +5
Skeletal editing enables precise structural modifications of molecules at late stages of a synthetic sequence, with applications in drug discovery and materials science. We recentl…
Skeletal editing by tip-induced chemistry
Shantanu Mishra, Valentina Malave, Rasmus Svensson +4
Skeletal editing of cyclic molecules has garnered considerable attention in the context of drug discovery and green chemistry, with notable examples in solution-phase synthesis. He…
The multiconfigurational ground state of a diradicaloid characterized at the atomic scale
Elia Turco, Lara Tejerina, Gonçalo Catarina +5
We report the tip-induced generation and scanning probe characterization of a singlet diradicaloid, consisting of two phenalenyl units connected by an sp-hybridized C chain,…
Synthesis and characterization of a -extended Clar's goblet
Shantanu Mishra, Manuel Vilas-Varela, Igor RonÄeviÄ +4
Concealed non-Kekulé polybenzenoid hydrocarbons have no sublattice imbalance yet cannot be assigned a classical Kekulé structure, leading to an open-shell ground state with poten…
A Route Toward the On-Surface Synthesis of Organic Ferromagnetic Quantum Spin Chains
Fabian Paschke, Ricardo Ortiz, Shantanu Mishra +5
Engineering sublattice imbalance is an intuitive way to induce high-spin ground states in bipartite polycyclic conjugated hydrocarbons (PCHs). Such high-spin molecules can be emplo…
