Decacyclene

Description

Decacyclene is a large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with a triple symmetry. Decacyclene is a three-blade molecular propeller in the solid state, and crystal structure analysis shows that the molecule has a non-planar twisted form, and the crystal is chiral, which may correspond to the enantiomers of the Decacyclene propeller. Decacyclene can be used for research in chemical synthesis and materials science.
