abstract = {This study examines the radical nature and spin symmetry of
the ground state of the quasi-linear acene and
two-dimensional periacene series. For this purpose,
high-level ab initio calculations have been performed using
the multireference averaged quadratic coupled cluster theory
and the COLUMBUS program package. A reference space
consisting of restricted and complete active spaces is taken
for the pi-conjugated space, correlating 16 electrons with
16 orbitals with the most pronounced open-shell character
for the acenes and a complete active-space reference
approach with eight electrons in eight orbitals for the
periacenes. This reference space is used to construct the
total configuration space by means of single and double
excitations. By comparison with more extended calculations,
it is shown that a focus on the pi space with a 6-31G basis
set is sufficient to describe the major features of the
electronic character of these compounds. The present
findings suggest that the ground state is a singlet for the
smaller members of these series, but that for the larger
ones, singlet and triplet states are quasi-degenerate. Both
the acenes and periacenes exhibit significant polyradical
character beyond the traditional diradical.},
