Organic chemistry: Aromatics do the twist
David M. Lemal1
Abstract
For nearly 40 years, organic chemists have been fascinated by the idea of aromatic molecules that have the topology of a Möbius strip. No such molecule has been isolated — until now.
The first example of a Möbius aromatic molecule to be synthesized and isolated is described by Ajami et al.1 on page 819 of this issue. Although topologies resembling a Möbius strip (Fig. 1
