Abstract
Semiempirical molecular orbital calculations at the level of AM1 type were performed on the nanotubes generated from the Huckel type cyclacenes. It ha s been found that the cryptoannulenic effect exhibited by the parent cyclac enes tends to disappear as the tube length increases. (C) 1999 Elsevier Sci ence B.V. All rights reserved.
