This page is about small molecules that feature a lot of polycyclic elements.
Polycycles not just in in 2D but also (and perhaps predominately so) in 3D.
Preferably with no free rotational degrees of freedom in the molecule.
Examples
- 2D polycyclic
- no rotational degrees of freedom
Molecules close to adamantane in structure. These are close in nature to diamond. One proposal are adamantanes with corners substituted with boron sand or nitrogen.
- Either alternatingly wit four nitrigens and 4 borons
- Or all the same either all 8 substituted with nitrogen (adamanzane) or all 8 substituted with boron.
Misc
Aromatic polycyclic compounds are also often optically active and potentially of interest as basis for optically activated nanoscale actuators.
