Abstract: | In this work, for a representative set of 24 aromatic molecules, that includes hydrocarbons, hetero and charged rings, we explore the correlations between two aromaticity indexes. One of these indexes is based on the bifurcation values of the σ and π electron localization function (ELF), while the other one is the nuclear independent chemical shift (NICS). We observe that the quality of the possible correlations between these two kinds of indexes strongly depends on the kind of rings and on the particular indexes that are considered. |
