Question

What are the necessary conditions for a compound to show aromaticity?​

Answer 1

Planar, conjugated ring system with delocalisation of

electrons, where, n is an integer

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Compound must be flat, cyclic, and conjugated.
• It should obey Huckel's rule which states that an aromatic compound should have pi electrons in the p orbitals which take part in the overlapping.
• Rule is 4n + 2π electrons rule.
• In aromatic compounds, two more rings are joined by covalent bonds.
