Aromaticity is one of the most deeply rooted concepts in chemistry. But why, if two-thirds of
existing compounds can be classified as aromatic, is there no consensus on what …

This review describes the current state of magnetic criteria of aromaticity. The introduction
contains the fundamentals of ring currents in aromatic and antiaromatic systems, followed by …

Aromaticity cannot be measured directly by any physical or chemical experiment because it
is not a well-defined magnitude. Its quantification is done indirectly from the measure of …

Aromaticity is indispensable for explaining a variety of chemical behaviors, including
reactivity, structural features, relative energetic stabilities, and spectroscopic properties …

Aromaticity is a fundamental concept in chemistry, underpinning the properties and reactivity
of many organic compounds and materials. The ability to easily and accurately discern …

Quantum chemical calculations using density functional theory and correlated ab initio
methods of the 10 π‐electron systems (N6H6) 2+ and C2N4H6 show that the planar forms …

A unique thorium‐thorium bond was observed in the crystalline tri‐thorium cluster [{Th (η8‐
C8H8)(μ3‐Cl) 2} 3 {K (THF) 2} 2]∞, though the claim of σ‐aromaticity for Th3 bond has been …

We briefly review advances in computational actinoid (An) chemistry during the past ten
years in regard to two issues: the geometrical and electronic structures, and reactions. The …

The aromaticity of benzene, Al42− cluster, cyclopropane, borazine and planar
cyclooctatetraene (COT) was analyzed according to different strategies based on nucleus …

Although aromaticity is a concept in chemistry, in the last years, special efforts have been
carried out in order to propose theoretical strategies to quantify it as a property of molecular …
