  "Zigzag Aromatic Belts and Beyond"

• HOST

  Prof. Eiichi Nakamura (Ext. 24356), Department of Chemistry, School of Science

“Revolutionizing Chemistry with the Fjord-Stitching Strategy! Since 1954, the quest for zigzag aromatic belts has been a scientific challenge. Our breakthrough approach transforms affordable resorcin[n]arene derivatives into innovative belt[n]arenes, including the first fully conjugated belt[8]arene. This method unlocks a spectrum of zigzag-type molecular belts, offering unique molecular recognition properties with exciting applications in supramolecular chemistry. Discover how we’re pushing the boundaries and shaping the future of chemical science!”
