23. [20] Terminology of syn-facially fused [n]poly(7-hetero)norbornanes used in this paper: 'n' denotes the number of fused norbornane rings, while the prefix before [n] denotes the nature of the atoms at the norbornane-7-bridge position. Sequence is going from the left to the right, where CH2 bridge is abbreviated as 'C': Warrener, R. N.; Margetić, D.; Sun, G.; Amarasekara, A. S.; Foley, P.; Butler, D. N.; Russell, R. A.
