Phys. Lett. 1982, 87, 208] predicted nonacene to be the first linear acene with the triplet state $1^{3}B_{2u}$ as the ground state, instead of the singlet $1^{1}A_{g}$ state. However, contrary to that prediction, in a recent experimental work T\\\"onshoff and Bettinger [ Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 4125] demonstrated that nonacene has a singlet ground state. Motivated by this experimental finding, we decided to perform a systematic theoretical investigation of the nature of the ground, and the low-lying excited states of long acenes, with an emphasis"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1304.0075","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
