Metal aromaticity is a concept that extends the traditional idea of aromaticity, which is primarily associated with organic compounds featuring cyclic conjugated systems that follow Hückel's rule (4n + 2 π electrons). In metal aromatic systems, the aromatic character is attributed to metal-containing or metal-coordinated compounds that exhibit a similar stabilization due to delocalized electrons.
