Molecular electronics: Charge transport through a single benzene ring is studied using the mechanically controlled break‐junction technique. The low‐bias conductance for a meta‐coupled benzene ring is more than an order of magnitude smaller than that of a para‐coupled benzene ring. This difference can be explained by a destructive quantum interference effects in the meta‐coupled benzene (see picture).
