Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.21P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reason corresponding to the fact that cyclopentadienyl cation and radical are not aromatic is to be predicted, using inscribed polygon method.
Concept introduction: Inscribed polygon method is used to predict the relative energies of molecular orbitals of cyclic, completely conjugated molecules. Inscribed polygon is also known as Frost circle.
