a Molecular structure of the DBP-DBBA precursor. b Phenylated nanoribbon Ph-7-13-AGNR obtained after the Ullmann coupling and subsequent cyclodehydrogenation reactions induced at steps T1 and T2 respectively. c [18]-annulene GNR obtained by the on-surface phenyl migration and dehydrogenative meta coupling. The initial position of the migrated phenyl is shown in semitransparent green color.
