21.1 21.1 A.A. Benzene - Kekulé Benzene - Kekulé
Discovered by Michael Faraday in 1825. (#C = #H) The first structure for benzene was proposed by
August Kekulé in 1872.
This structure, however, did not account for the unusual chemical reactivity of benzene.

B.B. Benzene - Molecular Orbital Model Benzene - Molecular Orbital Model
The linear combination of six overlapping p orbitals must form six molecular orbitals.
Three will be bonding, three antibonding. Lowest energy MO will have all bonding
interactions, no nodes. As energy of MO increases, the number of
nodes increases.

Benzene - Molecular Orbital ModelBenzene - Molecular Orbital Model
Orbitals of equal energy are degenerate.Antibonding orbitals are starred (*).Electrons in the orbitals of lowest energy are in the “ground state”.

Benzene - Molecular Orbital ModelBenzene - Molecular Orbital Model
The pi system of benzene:• (a) the carbon framework with the six 2p orbitals.
• (b) overlap of the parallel 2p orbitals forms one torus above the plane of the ring and another. below it.
• this orbital represents the lowest-lying pi-bonding molecular orbital.

C.C. Benzene - Resonance Model Benzene - Resonance Model
We often represent benzene as a hybrid of two equivalent Kekulé structures.• each makes an equal contribution to the hybrid
and thus the C-C bonds are neither double nor single, but something in between.

Benzene - ResonanceBenzene - Resonance
Resonance energy:Resonance energy: the difference in energy between a resonance hybrid and the most stable of its hypothetical contributing structures in which electrons are localized on particular atoms and in particular bonds.• one way to estimate the resonance energy of
benzene is to compare the heats of hydrogenation of benzene and cyclohexene.

21.2 21.2 A.A. Concept of AromaticityConcept of Aromaticity
The underlying criteria for aromaticityaromaticity were recognized in the early 1930s by Erich Hückel, based on molecular orbital (MO) calculations.
To be aromatic, a compound must:1. be cyclic.
2. have one p orbital on each atom of the ring (sp2).
3. be planar or nearly planar so that there is continuous or nearly continuous overlap of all p orbitals of the ring.
4. have a closed loop of (4n + 2) pi electrons in the cyclic arrangement of p orbitals.

Frost Circles (Polygon Rule)Frost Circles (Polygon Rule)
Frost circle:Frost circle: a graphic method for determining the relative order of pi MOs in planar, fully conjugated monocyclic compounds.• inscribe a polygon of the same number of sides as
the ring to be examined such that one of the vertices is at the bottom of the ring.
• the relative energies of the MOs in the ring are given by where the vertices touch the circle
Those MOs:• below the horizontal line through the center of the
ring are bonding MOs.• on the horizontal line are nonbonding MOs.• above the horizontal line are antibonding MOs.

Aromatic HydrocarbonsAromatic Hydrocarbons
• according to Hückel’s criteria, [10]annulene should be aromatic; it has been found, however, that it is not.
• nonbonded interactions between the two hydrogens that point inward toward the center of the ring force the ring into a nonplanar conformation in which overlap of the ten 2p orbitals is no longer continuous.

Aromatic HydrocarbonsAromatic Hydrocarbons
• what is remarkable relative to [10]annulene is that if the two hydrogens facing inward toward the center of the ring are replaced by a methylene (CH2) group, the ring is able to assume a conformation close enough to planar that it becomes aromatic.

C.C. Antiaromatic Hydrocarbons Antiaromatic Hydrocarbons
Antiaromatic hydrocarbon:Antiaromatic hydrocarbon: a monocyclic, planar, fully conjugated hydrocarbon with 4n pi electrons (4, 8, 12, 16, 20...), it does not obey Huckel’s rule.• an antiaromatic hydrocarbon is especially unstable
relative to an open-chain fully conjugated hydrocarbon of the same number of carbon atoms.
Cyclobutadiene is antiaromatic.• in the ground-state electron configuration of this
molecule, two electrons fill the 1 bonding MO.
• the remaining two electrons lie in the 2 and 3 nonbonding MOs.
