Octacene is an organic compound and a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and the eighth member of the acene or polyacene family of linear fused benzene rings.[1][2][3] Its chemical formula is C34H20.
Synthesis
[edit]In 2010, the Bettinger group reported a photochemical synthesis of octacene and nonacene, utilizing a cryogenic matrix-isolation technique to stabilize these highly reactive acenes. This approach requires precursors containing a double α-diketone bridge to enable the formation of octacene and nonacene.[4]
