8 kcal cyclohexane bonds are shorter than single bonds). Thus the resonance energy determination is only as good as the model system that is used. Aromaticity was found to be a general property of many (but not all) cyclic, conjugated π systems. Moreover, it was found that aromaticity in molecules can be predicted by Huckel’s rule. The structural requirements implicit in Huckel’s rule are that there be 4n + 2 (n is an integer) π electrons in a cyclic, conjugated π system. Obviously benzene, which has six π electrons (4n + 2, n = 1) in a conjugated π system, is aromatic.
A positive charge on carbon contributes +1 to the oxidation level. 34 OXIDATION STATES OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Given these contributions, the oxidation level of a given carbon can be determined by adding together the contributions of the four attached bonds. OXIDATION STATES IN ALKANES Considering the various alkanes shown below, one sees that alkanes can have several different oxidation levels for carbon. Oxidation levels can range from −4 for methane and −3 for the carbon atom of methyl groups all the way to 0 for the quaternary carbon of neopentane.
In such cases π electrons are the electron pair which forms a bond to the proton. The above two equations describing the behavior of Bronsted acids and bases are not strictly correct because a Bronsted acid does not just dissociate, it donates a proton to something which accepts a proton. The proton does not just dissociate and float around in solution but is always attached to something. Furthermore a Bronsted base does not just find a proton to accept; it accepts a proton from a Bronsted acid.
