What is the major difference between an antiaromatic and aromatic compound?
Antiaromatic compounds have at least one sp³ hybridized atom in the ring.
Antiaromatic compounds are not conjugated.
Only aromatic compounds have 4n+ 2 pi electrons.
The structure must be cyclic for aromatic but not antiaromatic compounds.
Aromatic, not Antiaromatic compounds, are planar.
