Eight-membered 10π heterocyclic mesomeric betaines (HMBs) are unusual in that they are associated with two 1,3-dipolar fragments in mutual conjugation; they are conjugated HMBs belonging to Class 1A. Apart from the characterization of five derivative... Read More about Octabetaines: a DFT Study of Unexplored Eight-Membered 10π Heterocycles.

The properties of heterocyclic mesomeric betaines (HMBs) are determined by the connectivity between the ring 2π heteroatoms and the odd conjugated fragments that complete the ring. In contrast to conjugated HMBs (1,3-dipoles) and cross-conjugated HMB... Read More about A DFT study of mono-, bi- and tricyclic examples ofsemi-conjugated heterocyclic mesomeric betaines.
