Möbius carbon nanobelts (MCNBs) have attracted the attention of more and more researchers because of their torsional π conjugated structures and Möbius aromatic characteristics. The Möbius rule showed that 4 n π-electron MCNBs were aromatic. Several MCNBs have been successfully synthesized experimen...
