graphene and their high conjugation. Benzofulvenes contain a fulvene moiety within this conjugated system and are able to model how substituents affect aromaticity in this region. By changing the substituents on the exocyclic benzene ring to electron donating groups, the fulvene moiety can have more aromatic characteristics such as a low bond length alterna-tion (BLA). In this paper a procedure to synthesize benzofulvenes with varying exocyclic substituents will be outlined and six novel benzofulvenes
