  3. H H H H H H H H H H H H Kekulé Formulation of Benzene Later, Kekulé revised his proposal by suggestinga rapid equilibrium between two equivalentstructures.

  4. X X X X H H H H H H H H Kekulé Formulation of Benzene However, this proposal suggested isomers of thekind shown were possible. Yet, none were everfound.

  5. Structure of Benzene Structural studies of benzene do not support theKekulé formulation. Instead of alternating singleand double bonds, all of the C—C bonds are thesame length. Benzene has the shape of a regular hexagon.

  6. Resonance Structures of Benzene • Benzene is actually a resonance hybrid between the two Kekulé structures. • The C—C bond lengths in benzene are shorter than typical single-bond lengths, yet longer than typical double-bond lengths (bond order 1.5). • Benzene's resonance can be represented by drawing a circle inside the six-membered ring as a combined representation.

  7. The Stability of Benzene • Benzene is the best and most familiar example of a substance that possesses "special stability" or "aromaticity.” • Aromaticity is a level of stability that is substantially greater for a molecule than would be expected on the basis of any of the Lewis structures written for it.

  8. Thermochemical Measures of Stability heat of hydrogenation: compare experimentalvalue with "expected" value for hypothetical"cyclohexatriene" Pt + 3H2 H°= – 208 kJ

  9. 3 x cyclohexene 360 kJ/mol 231 kJ/mol 208 kJ/mol 120 kJ/mol Figure 11.2 (p 433)

  10. Resonance Energy • Benzene does not have the predicted heat of hydrogenation of –360 kJ/mol. • The observed heat of hydrogenation is –208 kJ/mol, a difference of 152 kJ. • This difference between the predicted and the observed value is called the resonance energy.

  11. Cyclic conjugation versus noncyclic conjugation 3H2 Pt heat of hydrogenation = 208 kJ/mol 3H2 Pt heat of hydrogenation = 337 kJ/mol

  12. Resonance Energy of Benzene compared to localized 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene 152 kJ/mol compared to 1,3,5-hexatriene 129 kJ/mol Exact value of resonance energy of benzene depends on what it is compared to, but regardless of model, benzene is more stable than expected by a substantial amount.

  13. Structure of Benzene • Each sp2 hybridized C in the ring has an unhybridized p orbital perpendicular to the ring that overlaps around the ring. • The six pi electrons are delocalized over the six carbons.
