Abstract
A new method to measure the amount of aromaticity is presented through the process of Bond Length Equalization (BLE). Degree of Aromaticity (DOA), a two-dimensional intensive quantity including geometric and energetic factors, as a new measurement of aromaticity is proposed. The unique characteristic of DOA and the formation of DOA will be displayed. The calculation of the geometrical optimization, DOA, Nucleus Independent Chemical Shifts (NICS) and Ring Stretching Vibration Raman Spectroscopy Frequency (RSVRSF) for the aromatic ring molecules - GnHnm(G = C, Si, Ge, n = 3, 5-8, m = +1, -1, 0, +1, +2) were calculated using the method of Density Functional Theory (DFT). The correlation between radius angle and molecular energy is absolute quadratic in the process of BLE. As the increasing of the number of ring atoms, the value of DOA decreasing gradually, the aromaticity decreased gradually, which was a same conclusion as NICS and RSVRSF concluded.Keywords: Bond Length Equalization; Correlation; Degree of Aromaticity; Ring Stretching Vibration Raman Spectroscopy Frequency
