boron species with 4n systems huckel
The Hückel rule defines that monocyclic and planar conjugated systems containing [4n + 2] π electrons are aromatic. Here, the authors highlight boron species that feature a globally 4n π system, defying the Hückel rule, but nonetheless exhibit aromaticity.
Dear Student,
The Hückel rule defines that monocyclic and planar conjugated systems containing [4 n + 2] π electrons are aromatic. Here, the authors highlight boron species that feature a globally 4 n π system, defying the Hückel rule, but nonetheless exhibit aromaticity.
The cation still has three 2c-2e. B–B bonds.
Happy Learning!
