Hückel’s Rule and NICS(0) Value Hückel’s Rule: 3 aromatic ( 芳香族 ) non-aromatic ( 非芳香族 ) anti-aromatic ( 反芳香族 ) number of electrons NICS(0) Value negative positive zero ( N = 0, 1, 2, …) 4N + 2 4N planar non-planar a rule to distinguish whether cyclic conjugated polyenes will have aromatic property on the basis of stabilization energy -conjugated cyclic compounds NICS(0) value: a value by theoretical calculations to estimate aromatic property larger absolute value means stronger aromaticity/anti-aromaticity structure

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1981, 103, 1777. open shell structure contributes to resonance hybride and has diradical character

Summary Non-planar tub-shaped COT exhibits non-aromaticity and planarized COT exhibits anti-aromaticity. Twisted COT congener was formed by dimerization of indeno[2,1- a]fluorenes and its twisted COT ring exhibits decreased anti- aromaticity. Synthesis of Ph-substituted indenofluorene dimer was attempted, but unexpected reaction occurred. 19
