Aromaticity of All Possible C26N2 Isomers

The aromaticity of all possible heterofullerenes C₂₆N₂ and C₂₈ based on T_d symmetry has been studied by means of the topological resonance energy and percentage topological resonance energy methods. The relationship between the aromaticity of the C₂₆N₂ isomers and the sites where nitrogen atoms dope at the C₂₈ cage has been discussed. The calculation results show that the most stable isomer of C₂₆N₂ derivatives is formed by nitrogen atoms doping at the two tetrahedral vertices. C₂₆N₂ isomers are more stable than C₂₈, but the C₂₆N₂^2? isomers are less stable than C₂₈ ^4?4. The effect of nitrogen substitution on C₂₈ stability was investigated by the topological charge stabilization rule.
