  2. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene and cyclohexane have a similar structure, only the ring of delocalized electrons and the loss of one hydrogen per carbon distinguishes it from cyclohexane. The molecule is planar. [ 58 ] The molecular orbital description involves the formation of three delocalized π orbitals spanning all six carbon atoms, while the valence bond ...

  3. Phenyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenyl_group

    The phenyl group is closely related to benzene and can be viewed as a benzene ring, minus a hydrogen, which may be replaced by some other element or compound to serve as a functional group. A phenyl group has six carbon atoms bonded together in a hexagonal planar ring, five of which are bonded to individual hydrogen atoms, with the remaining ...

  4. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Lewis structure of a water molecule. Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.

    [18] [19] The LDQ structure for benzene is shown below. [16] [24] The LDQ structure of benzene. The carbon nuclei are coloured brown and the hydrogen nuclei are coloured pink, while the electrons are coloured either purple or green to distinguish between the spin sets. Left: The dot-and-cross diagram of the LDQ structure of benzene.

  6. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  7. Aromatic compound - Wikipedia

    Line bond structure of benzene [5] Electron flow through p orbitals showing the aromatic nature of benzene [5] Benzene, C 6 H 6, is the least complex aromatic hydrocarbon, and it was the first one defined as such. [6] Its bonding nature was first recognized independently by Joseph Loschmidt and August Kekulé in the 19th century. [6]

  9. Delocalized electron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delocalized_electron

    In the simple aromatic ring of benzene, the delocalization of six π electrons over the C 6 ring is often graphically indicated by a circle. The fact that the six C-C bonds are equidistant is one indication that the electrons are delocalized; if the structure were to have isolated double bonds alternating with discrete single bonds, the bond would likewise have alternating longer and shorter ...
