'''Cyclooctadecanonaene''' or '''annulene''' is an ] with chemical formula {{chem|C|18|H|18}}. It belongs to the class of highly ] compounds known as ] and is ]. The usual isomer that annulene refers to is the most stable one, containing six interior hydrogens and twelve exterior ones, with the nine formal double bonds in the ''cis'',''trans'',''trans'',''cis'',''trans'',''trans'',''cis'',''trans'',''trans'' configuration. It is reported to be a red-brown crystalline solid.

==Aromaticity==
Notably, annulene is the first annulene after ] (annulene) to be fully ]: its π-system contains 4n + 2 electrons (n = 4), and it is large enough to comfortably accommodate six hydrogen atoms in its interior, allowing it to adopt a planar shape, thus satisfying ]. The discovery of aromatic stabilization for annulene is historically significant for confirming earlier theoretical predictions based on ], since simple versions of valence bond theory did not readily explain 4''n'' + 2 rule.

The <sup>1</sup>H ] of this compound exhibits hallmarks of a system with an ], with the 12H signal of exterior hydrogens at 9.25 ppm, while 6H signal of interior hydrogens resonates at a remarkable −2.9 ppm in THF-''d<sub>8</sub>'' at −60&nbsp;°C. On the other hand, a single signal at 5.45 ppm (weighted average of two individual signals) is observed at 120&nbsp;°C. This is consistent with rapid exchange of exterior and interior hydrogens at that temperature. The ] in annulene are in between those of single and double carbon–carbon bond, with two bond lengths observed ]: 138.9 pm (concave edges) and 140.7 pm (convex edges) and are indicative of significant ]. The favorability of delocalization is, in turn, interpreted as evidence for aromaticity. For comparison, these values are close to bond length of benzene (140 pm).<ref name="Jux2016">{{Cite journal|last1=Jux|first1=Norbert|last2=R. Schleyer|first2=Paul v|last3=Majetich|first3=George|last4=Meyer|first4=Karsten|last5=Hampel|first5=Frank|last6=W. Heinemann|first6=Frank|last7=V. Nizovtsev|first7=Alexey|last8=Lungerich|first8=Dominik|date=2016|title=Annulene put into a new perspective|journal=Chemical Communications|language=en|volume=52|issue=25|pages=4710–4713|doi=10.1039/C6CC01309K|pmid=26953607|doi-access=free}}</ref>
annulene are around 139 to 141 pm, indicating delocalization and a bond order between 1 and 2. In general, carbon-carbon single bonds and double bonds are 154 pm and 134 pm, respectively, while benzene, with a bond order of 1.5, the bond-length is 140 pm.]]

Based on enthalpy of hydrogenation, overall ] energy has been estimated to be 37 kcal/mol.<ref>{{Cite journal|date=1974-11-06|title=The Stabilization Energy of Annulene. A thermochemical determination|journal=Helvetica Chimica Acta|volume=57|issue=7|pages=2276–2288|doi=10.1002/hlca.19740570745|issn=0018-019X|last1=Oth|first1=Jean F. M.|last2=Bünzli|first2=Jean-Claude|last3=De Julien De Zélicourt|first3=Yves}}</ref> This is about the same as that of benzene; however, this energy is spread out over 18 atoms instead of 6, so annulene experiences a weaker stabilization than benzene. In terms of reactivity, it is somewhat more air- and light-stable than annulene]] and annulene]], which are, respectively, weakly aromatic and nonaromatic due to transannular interactions. Nevertheless, it rapidly undergoes ]s, much like other ], and attempts to effect ] on annulene failed.<ref>{{cite journal|author1=Sondheimer, F.|author2=Wolovsky, R. |author3=Amiel, Y.|year=1962|title=Unsaturated Macrocyclic Compounds.

Despite the usual interpretation of annulene as an 18-electron aromatic system, a 2014 theoretical study suggested that annulene may be thought of as having only three completely delocalized ] associated with its aromaticity, while other six π bonds represent conjugated ] ("3c-2e") π bonds on periphery of molecule.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Ivanov|first=A.|author2=Boldyrev.
