Dicyanopolyynes: A Homologuous Series of End-Capped Linear sp Carbon
摘要:
AbstractThe synthesis, isolation, spectroscopic characterization, and computational investigations of the rod‐shaped dicyanopolyynes 1–6 (C2nN2, n = 4–9), which are model substances for the hypothetical one‐dimensional carbon allotrope carbyne sp‐C∞, are described. Based on the trends in the spectroscopic behavior of 1–6 with increasing chain length, the electronic as well as the NMR properties of carbyne are predicted. For the investigation of the synthetic potential of this compound class, a first selected series of regioselective derivatizations is presented with the synthesis of the [4+2] and [3+2] cycloadducts 7–12.
