Abstract
© 2019 American Chemical Society. Size selective synthesis of large cycloparaphenyleneacetylene carbon nanohoops was achieved using alkyne metathesis. The large nanohoops were stable in ambient conditions due to their reduced strain. The nanohoops exhibited blue fluorescence with high quantum yields.
