Chapter 9.5, Problem 9.12YT
Skill Building Benzene and Phenyl
The difference between a phenyl group, ─C6H5, and the compound benzene, C6H6, is simply one H atom.
- a. Both the phenyl group and benzene have two resonance structures. Draw them. Hint: Resonance was introduced in Section 3.7.
- b. Given these resonance structures, why is the shorthand symbol of a circle within a hexagon a particularly good representation of both benzene and the phenyl group?
