Abstract
Remarkably aromatic are the diaza[26]annulenes of type 1, which are st abilized by pyrrole rings positioned at the corners. This has been pro ven by H-1 NMR spectroscopy, crystal structure analysis, and by electr ophilic substitution reactions. In contrast, for the simple annulenes (CH)n, the aromaticity ''stops'' at the 22pi electron system.
