A project fork is defined (in computing) as creating a distinct and separate strand from an existing (coding) project. Here I apply the principle to the polar azulene 4 explored in an earlier post, taking m-benzyne as a lower homologue of azulene as my starting point. m-Benzyne is a less stable 1,3 isomer of o-benzyne (1,2-dehydrobenzene), and is often represented as a 1,3-biradical of 1,3-dehydrobenzene.
