title = "Soluble and stable heptazethrenebis(dicarboximide) with a singlet open-shell ground state",
abstract = "A soluble and stable heptazethrene derivative was synthesized and characterized for the first time. This molecule exhibits a singlet biradical character in the ground state, which is the first case among zethrene homologue series. Exceptional stability of this heptazethrenebis(dicarboximide) raises the likelihood of its practical applications in materials science. {\textcopyright} 2011 American Chemical Society.",
