Abstract

AbstractA new allotropic form of carbon formed by allene units is described. Its tetragonal unit cell contains 12 carbon atoms (8 sp2 and 4 sp) and it has a calculated density of 2.72 g. cm−3. As a result of the mixture of sp2 and sp carbon atoms, this new all‐carbon molecule is expected to be rather stable and may have metallic properties.
