Information from Chemfinder.

SI units were used where possible. Unless otherwise stated, standard conditions were used.

Coronene is an aromatic molecule consisting of 7 benzene rings. It is especially stable since the electrons in this system are not fixed in one place. They can move all around the molecule because it's a conjugated system.
