conclusion

• Biradicaloids have intermediate nature between the nature of two structure which are a closed-shell and open-shell.

• Indeno[2,1-b]fluorene has a extraordinary optical property.

• Nonalternant hydrocarbons which have moderate singlet biradical character can have the extraordinary optical property.

• Synthesis of fluoreno[2,3-b]fluorene is undergone.
