title: Design of aromatic heteropolycyclics containing borole frameworks.
abstract: The heteropolycyclic compounds containing borole units were theoretically designed. The presence of electron deficient boron atoms results in full electron delocalization and remarkably affects their aromaticity. While molecules 1 and 2a exhibit antiaromaticity for inner rings and non-aromaticity for outer rings, 2b and 2c are completely aromatic.
