Zigzag-edged Graphene triagulenes are known to host a magnetic ground state due to sublattice imbalance. The magnetic properties of these structures can be tuned by the size of the triangulene or via heteroatom substitution. This makes them intriguing for future spintronic applications paving the way towards organic logical devices. So far, the influence of heteroatoms in larger triangulenes seems to be unknown. In our work, we report the bottom-up synthesis of [5] aza-Triangulene by means of surface-assisted cyclodehydrogenation on a Au(111) surface. Electronic transport measurements carried out with a scanning tunneling microscope reveal the high-spin ground state of this molecule via low energy phenomena. Additionally, we shine light on not only the influence of heteroatoms but also of additional Hydrogen atoms and defects which are able to tune the magnetic ground state. Density functional theory and Mean-Field-Hubbard calculations confirm the spin texture and the electronic structure of the observed molecules.
