On‐surface cyclodehydrogenation recently became an important reaction to planarize π‐conjugated molecules and oligomers. However, the high‐activation barrier to cleave the C−H bond often requires high‐temperature annealing, consequently restricting structures of precursor molecules and/or leading to random fusion at their edges. Here, we present a synthesis of pyrrolopyrrole‐bridged ladder oligomers from 11,11,12,12‐tetrabromo‐1,4,5,8‐tetraaza‐9,10‐anthraquinodimethane molecules on Ag(111) with bond‐resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy. This non‐dehydrogenative cyclization between pyrazine and ethynylene/cumulene groups has a low‐activation barrier for forming intermediary dimeric oligomer containing dipyrazinopyrrolopyrrolopyrazine units, thus giving new insight into the strain‐sensitive in ladder‐oligomer formation.
