Reversible redox switching between local and global aromaticity for core-modified expanded carbaisophlorinoids

Abstract

Two dithienothiophene based 28π antiaromatic macrocycles with benzene and azulene units and their effects on local and global (anti)aromaticity have been described. Experimental and computational studies confirmed the presence of weak paratropic and strong diatropic ring current effects in neutral and dicationic states, respectively.
