- To be aromatic, a molecule must have 4n + 2 πs electrons and must have a planar, monocyclic system of conjugation. Cyclodecapentaene fulfills one of these criteria but not the other and has resisted all attempts at synthesis.

Show all lone pairs which are involved in cyclic delocalization?arrow_forwardConsider the following compound, which has been synthesized and characterized:(a) Assuming this molecule is entirely conjugated, do you expect it to be aromatic, antiaromatic, or nonaromatic?(b) Why was this molecule synthesized with three tert-butyl substituents? Why not makethe unsubstituted compound and study it instead?(c) Do you expect the nitrogen atom to be basic? Explain. Why doesn’t nitrogen’s lonepair overlap with the double bonds to give a total of six electrons in the pi system?(d) At room temperature, the proton NMR spectrum shows only two singlets of ratio 1:2. The smaller signal remainsunchanged at all temperatures. As the temperature is lowered to -110 °C, the larger signal broadens and separatesinto two new singlets, one on either side of the original chemical shift. At -110 °C, the spectrum consists of threeseparate singlets of areas 1:1:1. Explain what these NMR data indicate about the bonding in this molecule.
