1ReH•Cl, a highly robust and antiaromatic rhenium­(I) complex of triarylrosarin, is synthesized. The 1H NMR spectrum of 1ReH•Cl shows upfield-shifted pyrrole protons and highly downfield-shifted inner protons that confirm its antiaromatic nature, with density functional theory calculations strongly...
