18. The term graphdiyne comes from the name graphyne [2], which in turn is derived from graphite. Graphyne, the monoacetylenic analogue of 1, can be viewed as resulting from replacement of one-third of the carbon-carbon bonds in graphite by -C≡C-linkages. It follows that the diacetylenic version be called graphdiyne.
