The present invention produces Cyclic Compound (1) in which organic ring groups including cyclohexane rings and benzene rings are continuously bonded, using a compound having at least one cyclohexane ring and benzene rings with halogen atoms at the two terminuses, in the presence of a nickel compound (bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel, etc.). Thereafter, by converting the cyclohexane rings in Cyclic Compound (1) into benzene rings, a desired carbon nanoring can be obtained. Thereby, the present invention efficiently produces a carbon nanoring made of a compound having a cyclic structure in which a desired number of organic ring groups are continuously bonded, with a short production process.
本发明利用至少具有一个
环己烷环和苯环的化合物,在存在
镍化合物(如双(
1,5-环辛二烯)
镍等)的情况下,生成连续键合有机环团,包括
环己烷环和苯环的循环化合物(1)。然后,通过将循环化合物(1)中的
环己烷环转化为苯环,可以得到所需的碳纳米环。因此,本发明使用简短的生产过程高效地生产由具有连续键合所需数量的有机环团的循环结构化合物制成的碳纳米环。
