Single-crystal X-ray structure of 1,3-dimethylcyclobutadiene by confinement in a crystalline matrix.

Science 329(5989) , 299-302, (2010)

Cyclobutadiene (CBD), the smallest cyclic hydrocarbon bearing conjugated double bonds, has long intrigued chemists on account of its strained geometry and electronic instability, but the parent compound and its unperturbed derivatives have thus far eluded cry...

Unprecedented synthesis of 1,3-dimethylcyclobutadiene in the solid state and aqueous solution.

Chemistry 17(36) , 10021-8, (2011)

Cyclobutadiene (CBD), the smallest cyclic hydrocarbon bearing conjugated double bonds, has long intrigued chemists because of its chemical characteristics. The question of whether the molecule could be prepared at all has been answered, but the parent compoun...
