Abstract
Stabilizing and characterizing cyclocarbons are a significant challenge in carbon materials science. In the August 14 issue of Science, Anderson and Gao employ a dynamic protection strategy to achieve the stable existence and comprehensive spectroscopic characterization of cyclo[48]carbon in ambient solution. This latest breakthrough will pave the way for uncovering new carbon allotropes.
