Aromaticity TNT 8methylNvanillyl6nonenamide Capsaicin Buckminsterfullerene Key points amp objectives Aromatic molecules are cyclic conjugated flat and unusually stable 4n 2 electrons . Arenes are . aromatic hydrocarbons . containing 1 or more benzene rings. . A benzene ring is a ring of . 6 carbon atoms. , each of which is also bonded to a hydrogen atom, with molecular formula . C. 15-4. The UV-visible spectrum of benzene reveals its electronic structure.. The energy gap between bonding and antibonding orbitals is greater in benzene than for acyclic trienes.. The UV spectra of benzene shows absorbances at smaller wavelengths (higher energy) than does the spectra of 1,3,5-hexatriene:. Orbitals. Natural gas?. Fig. 11.1. Aliphatic Hydrocarbon Structure Comparison. Bonding and Geometry. of Two-Carbon Molecules . 11.1 Structure and Physical. . Properties. Bitter almonds are the source of the aromatic compound benzaldehyde. Sources of Benzene. Some Facts About Benzene. Reacts mainly by substitution. Friedrich August Kekule’. The Orbital Model for Benzene. 15-11. Carbon-carbon bonds to benzene can be created using a sufficiently electrophilic carbon based electrophile.. To create the necessary electrophilic carbon atom, a Lewis acid such as AlCl. 3. is employed.. Dr. . Shatha. I . Alaqeel. 108 . Chem. Learning Objectives. By the end of chapter four the students will:. Understand the resonance description of structure of benzene. Understand the hybridization in benzene. Leon. María. Elena. Larissa. Vanillin.
