Stable open-shell polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of fundamental interest due to their unique electronic, optical, and magnetic properties and promising applications in materials sciences. Chichibabin’s hydrocarbon as a classical open-shell PAH has been investigated for a long time. Howe...
