Herein, we demonstrate an efficient synthesis of two antiaromatic constitutional isomers of pyrene-fused dicyclopenta[a,f]naphthalenes (PCPNs) 1a and 1b featuring 44 π-conjugated electrons. Notably, the thermodynamic stability of PCPNs can be tuned by ortho-fusing pyrene moieties to either the a or b bond of dicyclopentanaphthalene (CPN) leading to labile 1,5- (1a) or stable 2,6-naphthoquinodimethane (NQDM) (1b) configurations, respectively. Both isomers 1a and 1b exhibit moderate open-shell biradical characters (y
