Survival and extinction of delocalised ring currents in clamped benzenes

Abstract

Direct visualisation of induced current density in clamped benzenes 1–4 distinguishes between saturated clamping groups, for which the central benzene ring retains a conventional diamagnetic ring current, and strongly interacting, unsaturated clamps, for which the central ring supports only the localised circulations expected of a 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene with fully fixed double bonds.
