The pentadienyl radical, H2C“CH¬CH“CH¬CH2#, has its unpaired electron delocalized over three carbon atoms.(a) Use resonance forms to show which three carbon atoms bear the unpaired electron.(b) How many MOs are there in the molecular orbital picture of the pentadienyl radical?(c) How many nodes are there in the lowest-energy MO of the pentadienyl system? How many in the highest-energy MO?(d) Draw the MOs of the pentadienyl system in order of increasing energy
The bond length of the indicated C-C single bond in hexa-1,3,5-triene is about 146 pm, which is considerably shorter than that in ethane, H3C-CH3. (a) How much shorter is it? Hint: See Figure 14-2, page 685. (b) Which occupied T MOS (obtained in Problem 14.32) help decrease this bond length? (c) If an electron were promoted from the HOMO to the LUMO, would the length of the C-C single bond increase, decrease, or stay roughly the same? Explain. 146 pm
