Carbon nanotubes come in different structural types, and their physical properties are tunable by structural variation. In the Jasti group, we are developing synthetic methods to generate short fragments of CNTs with atomistic precision that can then be used to template single-type carbon nanotubes. Herein are the results of our progress towards generating aromatic "belt" molecules using multistep organic synthesis.
