Abstract
A comprehensive MP2/6-311 + G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311 + G(d,p) study of the aromatic character of phospholes, P(n)(CH)(4-n )PH with n = 0-4 was conducted. For this purpose, the structures for these compounds were optimized at both theoretical levels and different magnetic properties (magnetic susceptibility anisotropy, χ(anis), and the nucleus-independent chemical shifts, NICS) were evaluated. For comparison, these magnetic properties were also calculated in the optimized structures with planarity constraints. We have also applied the ACID (anisotropy of the current-induced density) method in this analysis. The main conclusions are the aromatic character of these compounds, the relationship between aromaticity and planarity and the importance of other factors in this aromaticity.
