Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The prediction of the given structure as aromatic and the reason behind its aromaticity is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The conditions that a molecule must follow to be aromatic are shown below.

• The given compound must be cyclic in nature.
• It must be planar.
• There must be no ${\text{sp}}^3$ hybridized carbon in the given compound.
• The compound must follow Huckel’s rule of aromaticity that is $\left(4n+2\right)\text{π}$ electron system must be present.

If the given compound follows first three conditions but it follows $4n\text{π}$ electron system, then it is antiaromatic in nature. If the given compound fails to follow any of the above conditions then it is non-aromatic in nature.
