The macrocyclic structures with local conjugation readily undergo a redox-triggered change in the diatropic character, leading to a global current-density pathway of the doubly charged systems. The figure-eight geometry of the neutral dimer does not significantly change upon oxidation according to the spectroscopic and computational data. The oxidation leads to 3D cross-conjugation at the intersection of the two ethylene bridges resulting in a global ring current.
