| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we proposed a new method "polycyclic aromatic paneling" in which self-assembly of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are assembled into polyhedral structures. This would be useful to create a family of cage-like molecules that show electronic properties similar to those of conventional fullerenes. In order to make all-carbon framework, we designed aromatic compounds having vinyl or allyl groups as a coordination site and attempted the self-assembly driven by coordination to Group 10 metal. In many cases, however, the complexation gave complicated mixtures. In contrast, the complexation of compounds having ethynyl groups gave oligomers of various sizes. In addition, we succeeded in synthesizing various kinds of cyclic structures containing nickel(II) as Group 10 metal.
