title: Ring selectivity and migratory aptitude of Cp*Ru+ complexation to acecorannulene.
abstract: Synthesis and spectral characterization of acecorannulene CpRu+ complexes, in combination with ab initio quantum chemical computations, leads to the hypothesis that eta6-metal binding prefers the exo face in the region of least curvature.
