  text: Molecular electronics demands complex functional molecules with multiple pathways
    connecting electrode leads. We report the synthesis and study of a set of molecules
    based on a fluorene-like design in which atomic connectors are used to introduce
    two pathways for conductance. This manuscript details the structural demands and
    underlying rationale for developing high conductance in these complex molecular
    circuit components.
