Germanium-containing conjugated compounds are regarded as powerful candidates for the development of optoelectronic material. As a subclass of germanium-containing conjugated compounds and a crucial type of the heavy analogues of aromatic compounds, germanium-containing aromatic hydrocarbons (Ge-AHs) have attracted much attention and developed rapidly in recent days. According to the charge of the Ge-AHs, these species were categorized into three subclasses:neutral, anionic and cationic species. Herein, the synthetic methodology together with the reactivity of these reported Ge-AHs is summarized and the parameters used for the evaluation of the aromaticity of these compounds is highlighted. Ge-AHs and aromatic hydrocarbons share similar structural and magnetic properties. However, their major reactivity is quite different. This review will not only inspire the discovery of new structures and reactivities of Ge-Ahs, but also help to form a deeper understanding of the concept of aromaticy.
