From macrocycles to quantum rings: Does aromaticity have a size limit?
The ring currents of aromatic and antiaromatic molecules are remarkable emergent phenomena. A ring current is a quantum-mechanical feature of the whole system, and its existence cannot be inferred from the properties of the individual components of the ring. Hückel’s rule states that when an aromati...
