摘要: The ability to sustain a diatropic ring current is the defining characteristic of aromatic species. 1-7 Cyclic electron delocalization results in enhanced stability, bond length equalization, and special magnetic as well as chemical and physical properties. 1 In contrast, antiaromatic compounds sustain paratropic ring currents3 despite their localized, destabilized structures. 1-7 We have demonstrated the direct, quantitative relationships among energetic, geometrical, and magnetic criteria of aromaticity in a wide-ranging set of …
