Extended barbaralanes: Sigmatropic shiftamers or alpha-polyacenes?
Starting from fused barbaralanes, we come (theoretically) to a new class of delocalized molecules in which two polyenyl radical chains interact with each other through space in a bonding way, but do not form full sigma-bonds. These molecules resemble sigma-homologues of polyacenes and are bishomoaromatic.
