The cyclocarbons constitute a family of molecular carbon allotropes consisting of rings of two-coordinate atoms. Their high reactivities make them difficult to study, but there has been much progress towards understanding their structures and properties. Here we provide a short account of theoretical and experimental work on these carbon rings, and highlight opportunities for future research in this field.
