Are Multicentre Bond Indices and Related Quantities Reliable Predictors of Excited-State Aromaticity?

Systematic scrutiny is carried out of the ability of multicentre bond indices and the NOEL-based similarity index <i>d<sub>AB</sub></i> to serve as excited-state aromaticity criteria. These indices were calculated using state-optimized complete active-space self-consistent fi...
