Chapter 14, Problem 14.47P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Why C8H82- ion is easy to make via redox reaction, if cyclooctatetraene is treated with potassium, is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Organic compounds that are not aromatic are comparatively less stable than aromatic compounds.

Huckel’s rule for aromaticity states that if a species possesses a pi system of molecular orbitals constructed from p-orbitals that are fully conjugated around a ring (sp2 hybridized), then the species is aromatic if the number of electrons in that π- system is either 2,6,10,14,1,and so on.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Geometry of the dianion C8H82- is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Aromatic compounds are chemical compounds that contain conjugated planar ring systems with delocalized pi electron clouds instead of discrete alternating single and double bonds.
