Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The resonance contributing structure of the thymine is to be drawn. The evidence that supports the statement that the thymine follows the Hückel’s rule is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

A molecule that is cyclic, planar, completely conjugated and follows Huckel’s rule is classified as an aromatic compound.

Aromatic compounds follow Huckel’s rule of (4n+2)π electrons.

A ring that contains six or ten π electrons acts as an aromatic ring.

The stability of a compound depends upon the number of resonating structures.
