The strongest aromatic and antiaromatic pyrroliums are predicted based on the combination of hyperconjugation and push–pull effect via density functional theory calculations, highlighting the importance of transition metals in hyperconjugative aromaticity and demonstrating a particularly useful strategy for the design of aromatic and antiaromatic counterparts based on a nonaromatic parent species.
