Construction of hexabenzocoronene-based chiral nanographenes

Abstract The past decade witnessed remarkable success in synthetic molecular nanographenes. Encouraged by the widespread application of chiral nanomaterials, the design, and construction of chiral nanographenes is a hot topic recently. As a classic nanographene unit, hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene generally serves as the building block for nanographene synthesis. This review summarizes the representative examples of hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene-based chiral nanographenes. Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2023, 19, 736–751. doi:10.3762/bjoc.19.54
