Aromaticity switch of borabenzene: from aromatic when free or weakly aromatic when fused to 2D PAHs to non-aromatic when fused to 3D carboranes Free borabenzene is aromatic, but when fused with 3D aromatic carborane, it loses its aromaticity. A new series of ortho-carborane-fused boracycles has been successfully synthesized through selective ...

👉Recent #OpenAccess research by Zahra Noori and Jordi Poater investigated how the aromaticity of #borabenzene is switched
