Among the given organic compounds, the total number of aromatic compounds is
Huckel’s rule states, for a compound to be aromatic, the compound should be planar, cyclic, and should have electrons that should be in continuous delocalization or an uninterrupted cyclic pi-electron cloud should be there. Here n=
So if we put n=, we get π electrons
If we put n=, we get π electrons
If we put n=, we get π electrons and so on.
Compound (A) is not aromatic due to presence of carbon between the rings.
Hence the compounds,B,C and D are Aromatic as they have delocalising electrons associated to the ring.
Hence the number of aromatic compounds is
