Quantum interference (QI) of electron waves passing through a single-molecule junction provides a powerful means to influence its electrical properties. Here, we investigate the correlation between substitution pattern, conductance, and mechanosensitivity in [2.2]paracyclophane (PCP)-based molecular wires in a mechanically controlled break junction experiment. The effect of the <i>meta</i> versus <i>para</i> connectivity in both the central PCP core and the phenyl ring connecting the terminal an ...[more]
