Abstract Nanographenes (NGs) can be embedded with predesigned dopants or nonhexagonal rings to tailor the electronic properties and provide ideal platforms to study the unique physical and chemical properties. Here, we report the on-surface synthesis of NBN-doped NG embedded with five- and seven-membered rings (NBN-575-NG) on Au(111) from a oligophenylene precursor preinstalled with a NBN unit and a heptagonal ring. Scanning tunneling microscopy and non-contact atomic force microscopy images elucidate the intramolecular cyclodehydrogenation and the existence of the five- and seven-membered rings. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy spectra reveal that the NBN-575-NG is a semiconductor, which agrees with the density functional theory calculation results on a freestanding NBN-575-NG with the same structure. This work provides a feasible approach for the on-surface synthesis of novel NGs containing non-hexagonal rings.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
