53. The calculated (ZINDO/S) excitation energy with the largest oscillator strength is identical to the maximum absorption (i.e., 215 nm) and arises from multiple degenerate excitations (see the Supporting Information for details).

61. Attempts to refine the X-ray diffraction data obtained from needlelike crystals of 4b have been unsuccessful. A. crystal structure of 2,6,10-trimethyl-substituted 4b has been obtained and shows the anticipated π-stacking (plane-to-plane distance = 3.4 Â) in the context of ID columns. These data will be reported separately.
