Which NICS Aromaticity Index for Planar pi Rings Is Best?
Five increasingly sophisticated aromaticity indexes, based on nucleus-independent chem. shifts (NICS), were evaluated against a uniform set of arom. stabilization energies (ASE) for 75 mono- and polyheterocyclic five-membered rings. While acceptable statistical correlations were given by all of the NICS methods, the most fundamentally grounded index, NICS(0)pizz (based on the pi contribution to the out-of-plane zz tensor component), performed best statistically (cc = 0.980) and in practice. The easily computable NICS(1)zz index is a useful alternative (cc = 0.968). [on SciFinder (R)]
