Force Fields for Macromolecular Assemblies Containing Diketopyrrolopyrrole and Thiophene (2020)
Journal Article
Jiang, L., Rogers, D. M., Hirst, J. D., & Do, H. (2020). Force Fields for Macromolecular Assemblies Containing Diketopyrrolopyrrole and Thiophene. Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 16(8), 5150-5162. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.0c00399

Utilizing a force-matching procedure, we parametrize new force fields systematically for large conjugated systems. We model both conjugated polymers and molecular crystals that contain diketopyrrolopyrrole, thiophene, and thieno[3,2-b]thiophene units...

Dewar Benzenoids Discovered in Carbon Nanobelts (2020)
Journal Article
Hanson-Heine, M. W., Rogers, D. M., Woodward, S., & Hirst, J. D. (2020). Dewar Benzenoids Discovered in Carbon Nanobelts. Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 11(10), 3769-3772. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.0c01027

© 2020 American Chemical Society. The synthesis of cyclacene nanobelts remains an elusive goal dating back over 60 years. These molecules represent the last unsynthesized building block of carbon nanotubes and may be useful both as seed molecules for... Read More about Dewar Benzenoids Discovered in Carbon Nanobelts.
