Topological descriptors, entropy measures and NMR spectral predictions for nanoporous graphenes with [14]annulene pores

Abstract Porous two‐dimensional (2D) nanographene structures are materials with vast potentials in several areas of research with varied applications. The porous structures of these 2D‐materials offer multiple applications in the field of nanochemistry including sequestration of toxic metal ions as they possess large surface areas, enhanced electrical and electronic properties, and high mechanical flexibility. Their porous structures facilitate the creation of highly efficient electrodes, which could significantly improve the performance of batteries and other energy storage technologies. Topological descriptors are powerful tools for characterizing their structures and predicting the properties of molecules and thus have a number of applications. We compute the analytical expressions for degree‐based and Szeged‐type topological descriptors and their information‐theoretic entropies. In addition, we perform a comparative analysis of the scaled bond‐wise entropies between nanoporous graphenes and rectangular kekulene structures with comparable sizes. Furthermore, we predict the C and proton NMR spectral patterns of these materials using graph‐theoretical techniques.
