Aug 15, 2014 · Tropone, or 2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one, is an aromatic, non-benzenoid hydrocarbon. If you look at the resonance structures in the drawing below you'll see that …

Dec 1, 2014 · You can't apply Huckel's 4n+2 rule except for purely cyclic conjugation. When there are pendant pi bonds like the one in tropone all bets are off on 4n+2. You need to look at the …

Jun 16, 2021 · According to me tropolone has intramolecular H-bonding, so extent of H-bonding with water will decrease and thus, will be less soluble. Tropone (Cyclohepta-2,4,6-trien-1-one): …

Oct 29, 2016 · $\begingroup$ Also called tropone and is aromatic. The energy needed to disrupt the electronic energy involved in aromaticity will be huge, the molecule would probably …

Jul 26, 2022 · This answer discusses this situation in connection with the closely related 2-pyridone. The $4n+2$ rule does not apply at all when there are pendant pi-bonding atoms, but …

May 19, 2015 · Question: Identify A and B. My attempt The first step will be the attack of $\ce{PhMgX}$ on carbonyl carbon, that is, 1,2 position followed by hydrolysis, yielding an alcohol.

Mar 5, 2017 · Resonance structures can be drawn for all aromatic compounds. Tropolone, furan and thiophene are considered to be aromatic compounds because

Jan 28, 2018 · How can the stabilities of the tropylium and cyclopropenyl carbocations be compared? Both are aromatic according to Hückel's rule.

Jan 9, 2018 · Is cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene aromatic? I think it should not be, because even though the π-system possesses six π-electrons, the conjugation is not complete around the ring.

May 22, 2016 · What will be the order of stability? The answer key says that the stability order is: cyclopentadiene > cyclopentadienyl anion > cyclopentadiene cation According the me it …
