Furoxan-fused pyrenes and their dinitroso derivatives (obtained by furoxan ring opening) are considered for density functional treatment at the level of B3LYP/6-31G(d,p). Embedded benzofuroxan moiety in the furoxan-fused pyrene system is thought to undergo ring opening and reclosure process analogously to benzofuroxan itself. The stabilities, structural features, NICS(0) values, IR, and UV-VIS spectral aspects, etc., are investigated comparatively for these isomeric furoxan-fused pyrenes and their isomeric dinitroso derivatives.
