Question
Chapter 15.SE, Problem 32AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observation that cycloheptatrienone is stable but cyclopentadienone is so reactive and cannot be isolated is to be explained taking into account the polarity of the carbonyl group.
Concept introduction:
Carbonyl group is polar as oxygen is more electronegative than carbon. According to Huckel’s rule, any specie that is cyclic, planar and has (4n+2) delocalized Ï€ electrons will be
To explain:
The observation that cycloheptatrienone is stable but cyclopentadienone is so reactive and cannot be isolated is taking into account the polarity of the carbonyl group.
