Carbon‐rich compounds are accessible from topologically unusual polyynes. Impressive advances have been made in this area recently by the research groups led by Moore, Tour, Diederich, and de Meijere. The novel monomers not only display fascinating chemistry of their own, they may also be suited for the synthesis of new carbon allotropes.
