  1. Chapter 4 Benzene and Its Derivatives Fig. 13-CO, p. 358

  2. Benzene C6H6 Aromatic compounds contain the benzene ring.

  3. p. 359

  4. Benzene • Here are two contributing structures for benzene; • The resonance hybrid has some of the characteristics of each Lewis contributing structure. • The length of a carbon-carbon bond in benzene, for example, is midway between that of a carbon-carbon single bond and a double bond.

  5. In benzene, the six electrons of the carbon atoms can move freely around the ring. A hybrid orbital view of the benzene structure:

  6. Phenols • The functional group of a phenol is a hydroxyl group bonded to a benzene ring.

  7. Phenols • Some phenols found in nature
