First, we on-surface design a 1D pi-conjugated polymer with specific pi-topology, which is based on bisanthene monomers linked by cumulene bridges that tune specific vibrational modes. In a second step, upon further annealing, such vibrational modes steer the two-fold cyclization reaction between adjacent bisanthene moieties, which gives rise to a long and free-defect pentalene-bridged conjugated ladder polymer featuring a low band gap. In addition, high resolution atomic force microscopy allows us to identify by atomistic insights the resonant form of the polymer, thus confirming the validity of the Glidewell and Lloyd's rules for aromaticity. This on-surface synthetic strategy may stimulate exploiting previously precluded reactions towards novel pi-conjugated polymers with specific structures and properties.
