Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. one with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such a resonance structure is called a Clar structure. In other words, a ...
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.
In chemistry, the mesomeric effect (or resonance effect) is a property of substituents or functional groups in a chemical compound.It is defined as the polarity produced in the molecule by the interaction of two pi bonds or between a pi bond and lone pair of electrons present on an adjacent atom. [1]
In organic chemistry, hyperconjugation (σ-conjugation or no-bond resonance) refers to the delocalization of electrons with the participation of bonds of primarily σ-character. Usually, hyperconjugation involves the interaction of the electrons in a sigma (σ) orbital (e.g. C–H or C–C) with an adjacent unpopulated non-bonding p or ...
Diazo compounds have two main Lewis structures in resonance: R 2 >C-–N + ≡N and R 2 >CH=N + =N-. In organic chemistry, the diazo group is an organic moiety consisting of two linked nitrogen atoms at the terminal position.
On the other hand, the nitrobenzene resonance structures have positive charges around the ring system: The nitro group can withdraw electron density through resonance. Attack occurs at the meta position, since the (partial) formal positive charges at the ortho and para positions indicate electron deficiency at these positions.
A demonstration that how some well known 1,3-dipoles like ozone, nitro compounds and azides can be shown to have a resonance structure having 1,3 relationship between positive and negative formal charges. Known 1,3-dipoles are: Azides (RN 3) Ozone (O 3) Nitro compounds (RNO 2) Diazo compounds (R 2 CN 2) Some oxides. Azoxide compounds (RN(O)NR)
In organic chemistry, a dithiocarbamate is a functional group with the general formula R 2 N−C(=S)−S−R and structure >N−C(=S)−S−. It is the analog of a carbamate in which both oxygen atoms are replaced by sulfur atoms (when only one oxygen is replaced the result is thiocarbamate ).
