Abstract
Pentalenes are formally eight-pi-electron antiaromatic, but pi-expanded pentalenes can display varying levels of paratropicity depending on the choice of annelated (hetero)arenes and the geometry of pi-expansion (i.e., linear vs bent topologies) around the [4n] core. Here, we explain the effects of annelation on the paratropicity of pi-expanded pentalenes by relating the electronic structure of pentalenes to a pair of conjoined pentafulvenes. Show more
