Lieb’s theorem/Longuet­Higgins conjecture

Longuet­Higgins, J. Chem. Phys. 18, 265 (1950) 

(1) The number of unpaired electrons present in the ground state is at least as great as the number of carbon atoms having a deficiency of valence bonds in any principal resonance structure. (2) With a few special exceptions, these odd electrons are distributed  over just those atoms which have a deficiency of  valence  bonds  in  one  or  more  of  the  principal  resonance  structures.  (3)  In  singly  charged hydrocarbon anions or cations the ionic charge  is located on just those atoms which bear charges in 

the various principal resonance structures.
