Sulflower (a portmanteau of sulfur and sunflower) is a stable heterocyclic octacirculene based on thiophene. Sulflower does not contain any hydrogen. With molecular formula (C2S)8 the compound is considered a type of carbon sulfide. The molecule is flat and together with the 9-membered homolog is at a local strain energy minimum. The sulflower molecule has a planar structure with D8h symmetry, i.e., all eight sulfur atoms as well as the two faces of the molecule are undistinguishable. Because of its planar structure, it is predicted to be able to store many hydrogen molecules between the stacks. The conformation of the H2 molecule is calculated to be "standing up" over the five membered rings. Detailed DFT calculations have been performed on these molecules.

Be the first to own a small piece of the chemical universe! Each ball and stick 3d model is unique to that compound and is scientifically accurate to the nanoscale. There are many autogenerated art pieces, but none can say they were formed almost entirely by nature, until now. By collecting a molecule you can fuel scientific progress and take ownership in the building blocks of our world! And with more than 350,000 chemical compounds tabulated by modern science, everyone will get to share in a wealth of knowledge.
