Cyclo[6]- and cyclo[8]pyrrole, two aromatic expanded porphyrins, were studied in a single-molecule transistor (SMT) setup. The analyses of these compounds allowed us to observe an uncommon absence of an even-odd effect in the Kondo resonance in discrete, metal-free organic macrocyclic compounds. The findings from the SMT measurements of these cyclopyrroles were in accord with those from cyclic voltammetry (CV) studies and theoretical analyses. These findings provide support for the notion that S ...[more]
