The effects of antiaromaticity and destructive quantum interference (DQI) are investigated on the charge transport through dibenzo-[a,e]pentalene (DBP). 5,10-Connectivity gives high single-molecule conductance whereas 2,7 gives low conductance due to DQI. Comparison of the 5,10-DBP with phenyl and anthracene analogues yields the trend GDBP ≈ GAnth > GPh, despite the aromatic anthracene having a larger HOMO-LUMO gap than 5,10-DBP. This is explained by unfavourable level alignment for 5,10-DBP.
研究了抗芳香性和破坏性量子干涉（DQI）对通过二苯并[a,e]戊搭烯（DBP）的电荷传输的影响。5,10-连接性导致高单分子电导，而2,7-连接性由于DQI导致低电导。将5,10-DBP与苯基和蒽类似物进行比较，得出GDBP≈GAnth>GPh的趋势，尽管芳香性的蒽比5,10-DBP具有更大的HOMO-LUMO能隙。这是由5,10-DBP不利的能级排列所解释的。
