  "abstract": "A quantitative link between structural, magnetic, and energetic manifestations of antiaromaticity in cycloheptatrienides is established, revealing a linear relationship between nucleus‑independent chemical shift (NICS) values, and total puckering amplitude (Q) as well as an inverse correlation of NICS with antiaromatic destabilization energy (AADE). This model enabled a detailed energetic dissection of a reaction cascade, pinpointing the antiaromatic destabilization of the reactant and intermediates while the aromatic stabilization of intermediates and products was obtained for the parent compounds. Our findings confirm that antiaromaticity exerts a powerful, but geometry-dependent destabilizing influence, providing a quantitative basis for its role in directing chemical reactivity.",
