Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project entitled "Structural chemistry of nanocarbon molecules on the basis of organic synthesis", fundamental understandings of the molecular structures of nanocarbons and application of nanocarbon molecules have been explored. Well-established knowledge in organic structural chemistry from the last century could not be applied directly to nanocarbons, because nanocarbons were not "molecular entities" but rather "chemical species". In this project, the lack of with discrete structures of nanocarbon has been challenged, and model, segmental molecules of nanocarbons have been constructed by organic synthesis. These models were utilized to deepen the structural chemistry of nanocarbon molecules, and advanced applications of nanocarbon molecules were explored in the interdisciplinary fields. As the result, important results such as stereoisomerism of tubular hydrocarbons or dynamic "molecular bearings" were obtained.
