Chapter 12.21, Problem 29P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The more stable compound out of indole and isoindole is to be identified and the reason for it is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

For a species to be aromatic, the number of π electrons in conjugated, planar, monocyclic species must be equal to 4n+2, where n is an integer. This is called Huckel’s rule.

The species which satisfies the rules for aromaticity is considered to be more stable than the species which does not satisfy these rules.
