Variation of polarizability in the [4n+2] annulene series: from [22]- to [66]-annulene.
Using correlated ab initio methods, the polarizability of large [4n+2]-annulenes is determined, showing that there exists an almost linear relation between the exaltation of magnetic susceptibility (a measure of aromaticity) and an equivalent enlargement of polarizability.
