Stability of Cyclobutadiene Cyclobutadiene is observed to be highly reactive, and too unstable to be isolated and stored in thecustomary way. Not only is cyclobutadiene not aromatic, it is antiaromatic. An antiaromatic substance is one that is destabilizedby cyclic conjugation.
notaromatic notaromatic aromatic Antiaromatic when square Antiaromatic when planar Requirements for Aromaticity cyclic conjugation is necessary, but not sufficient
Conclusion there must be some factor in additionto cyclic conjugation that determines whether a molecule is aromatic or not Dr. Wolf's CHM 201 & 202 11-125

Hückel's Rule Hückel restricted his analysis to planar,completely conjugated, monocyclic polyenes he found that the p molecular orbitals ofthese compounds had a distinctive pattern one p orbital was lowest in energy, another was highest in energy, and the others were arranged in pairs between the highestand the lowest Dr. Wolf's CHM 201 & 202 11-129
