While a theoretical possibility, the triplet form of the parent cyclobutadiene and its substituted derivatives remained elusive for decades. However, in 2017, the square triplet excited state of 1,2,3,4-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-cyclobutadiene was observed spectroscopically, and a singlet-triplet gap of E ST = 13.9 kcal/mol (or 0.6 eV per ...
Cyclooctatetraene (C 8 H 8) with eight π electrons has a nonplanar "tub" structure. However the dianion C 8 H 2– 8 (cyclooctatetraenide anion), with ten π electrons obeys the 4n + 2 rule for n = 2 and is planar, while the 1,4-dimethyl derivative of the dication, with six π electrons, is also believed to be planar and aromatic.

The compound was first prepared by thermolysis of the ammonium salt [C 4 H 7 N(CH 3) 3]OH (cyclobutyltrimethylammonium hydroxide). [2] Cyclobutene thermally isomerizes to 1,3-butadiene. This strongly exothermic reaction reflects the dominance of ring strain. In contrast, the corresponding equilibrium for hexafluorocyclobutene disfavors ...
3,5-dimethylene-1-cyclopentene 3,5-dimethylene-1-cyclopentene By using 3,5-dimethylene-1-cyclopentene as an example. Transition electric dipole, magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments interactions result in optical rotation(OR), which can be described by both tensor components and chemical geometries.
That implies a stabilization energy of 3.5 kcal/mol. [25] Similarly, the hydrogenation of the terminal double bond of 1,4-pentadiene releases 30.1 kcal/mol of heat, while hydrogenation of the terminal double bond of conjugated (E)-1,3-pentadiene releases only 26.5 kcal/mol, implying a very similar value of 3.6 kcal/mol for the stabilization ...
Two different resonance forms of benzene (top) combine to produce an average structure (bottom). In organic chemistry, aromaticity is a chemical property describing the way in which a conjugated ring of unsaturated bonds, lone pairs, or empty orbitals exhibits a stabilization stronger than would be expected by the stabilization of conjugation alone.
Homoaromaticity, in organic chemistry, refers to a special case of aromaticity in which conjugation is interrupted by a single sp 3 hybridized carbon atom. Although this sp 3 center disrupts the continuous overlap of p-orbitals, traditionally thought to be a requirement for aromaticity, considerable thermodynamic stability and many of the spectroscopic, magnetic, and chemical properties ...
The first excited state (ES-1) is formed from promoting an electron from the HOMO to the LUMO, and thus is represented as Ψ 1 2 Ψ 2 Ψ 3. As Ψ 1 is A, Ψ 2 is S, and Ψ 3 is A, the symmetry of this state is given by A 2 SA=A.Now considering the electronic states of the product, cyclobutene, the ground-state is given by σ 2 π 2 , which has ...
