据《自然》杂志报导,德国波恩大学的一批研究人员最近宣布他们合成出一种分子式为 C_(36)H_(36)的呈几乎完美的球形结构的笼状化合物,并将其命名为“球状苯”(Spherip-hane)。这是在科学家们发现 C_(60)球状碳分子(富勒苯)之后掀起的研究热潮中涌现出的最新成果之一。据报导,球状苯的合成需要使用一类特殊的分子折迭与粘合技术,与制作纸雕时所用 According to the journal Nature, a group of researchers at the University of Bonn in Germany recently announced that they have synthesized a cage compound with an almost perfect spherical structure of the molecular formula C_ (36) H_ (36) and named it “ Spherip-hane. ” This is one of the latest developments in the research craze that scientists have found after discovering C 60 spherical fullerene molecules (fullerenes). It has been reported that the synthesis of spherical benzene requires the use of a special class of molecular folding and binding techniques used in the production of paper carving
