The Seven‐Membered Ring in Bis‐Azuleno‐Naphthalene is Non‐Aromatic.

- Abstract
The magnetic properties of the title compound (1) were studied using NICSπ,zz and NICS‐XY‐scan. It was found that the seven‐membered ring is non‐aromatic. The small paratropic values are the result of three diatropic moieties that surround this ring. NICSπ,zz and NICS‐XY‐scan studies show that the seven‐membered ring in bis‐azuleno‐naphthalene is non‐aromatic, in contradiction to an earlier claim, which suggested that this ring is antiaromatic.
