Synthesis of cyclo[18]carbon via debromination of C₁₈Br₆
;

_publ_section_abstract
;  
Cyclo[18]carbon (C₁₈, a molecular carbon allotrope) can be synthesized by 
dehalogenation of a bromocyclocarbon precursor, C₁₈Br₆, in 50% yield, by 
atomic manipulation on a sodium chloride surface at 5 K, and imaged by high 
resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM). This method of generating C₁₈ gives 
a higher yield and cleaner images than the method reported previously, elimination 
of CO from the cyclocarbon oxide, C₂₄O₆. The experimental images of C₁₈ 
were compared with calculated images for four theoretical model geometries:
D₉ₕ polyyne, D₁₈ₕ cumulene, D₉ₕ cumulene and C₉ₕ polyyne. The 
results fit well with the two polyyne models, but do not distinguish between 
D₉ₕ and C₉ₕ geometries: there is evidence for bond-length alternation, and 
some degree of bond-angle alternation cannot be excluded.

_diffrn_special_details
;
The crystals of this compound quickly loose solvent and 
becomes amorphous. Several attempts at measuring these 
crystals were made. For one particular sample the solvent was 
very slowly evaporated in the fridge. A small hexagonal plate 
crystal was seen and mounted. This particular sample did not 
seem to suffer from solvent loss in the same way as the 
others.
The crystal was mounted using our in-house diffractometor and 
collected over the weekend. Unfortunately the crystal 
diffracted weakly and a hemisphere of data were collected to 
1°.
;

_refine_special_details 
; 
Data were carefully examined for symmetry, beam damage and 
other issues. The collected data were weak but would solve in 
Fdd2 using SHELXT. Due to the resolution of the data the data 
to parameter ratio is low, which is why a disordered model is 
not appropriate though the thermal ellipsoids clearly indicate 
that disorder is present in the structure.

;
PROBLEM: The value of sine(theta_max)/wavelength is less than 0.550
RESPONSE: The best crystal obtained were small and did not 
diffract to high angle. The emphasis was on collecting as 
intense data as possible. Data were collected to 1\%A. 
;
_vrf_PLAT084_I
;
PROBLEM: High wR2 Value (i.e. > 0.25)
RESPONSE: Data were carefully examined to determine space 
group and any potential twinning. Reflections were broad along
certain directions but no obvious indications of twinning were 
observed.
;
_vrf_PLAT090_I
;
PROBLEM: Poor Data / Parameter Ratio (Zmax > 18)   
RESPONSE: Due to size of crystal and diffraction intensity  
data were only collected to 1\%A which gives rise to a 
poor data to parameter ratio.
;
_vrf_PLAT250_I
;
PROBLEM: Large U3/U1 Ratio for Average U(i,j) Tensor
RESPONSE: Due to the poor data to parameter ratio it is not 
reasonable to model the disorder for this compound. Initial 
attemps were made to check if the disorder could easily be 
resolved.
