Description
Summary:Oxocarbons are one of the best examples of a class of molecules having symmetric pie-systems with hetero-atoms being responsible for delocalization. Chemical methodology in the field of oxocarbons is examined, and an overview of substances synthesized in 1992 and of the emerging field of applications of oxocarbon derivatives is presented.
