9 Benzene - VB Model
• The concepts of hybridization of atomic orbitals
and the theory of resonance, developed in the
1930s, provided the first adequate description of
benzene’s structure
• the carbon skeleton is a regular hexagon, with all
C-C and H-C-C bond angles 120°

9 Benzene - VB Model
• each carbon has one unhybridized 2p orbital containing
one electron
• overlap of the six parallel 2p orbitals forms a
continuous pi cloud
• the electron density of benzene lies in one torus above
the plane of the ring and a second below it

9 Benzene - Resonance
• We often represent benzene as a hybrid of two
equivalent Kekulé structures
• each makes an equal contribution to the hybrid, and
thus the C-C bonds are neither double nor single, but
something in between

9 Benzene - Resonance
• Resonance energy: the difference in energy
between a resonance hybrid and the most stable
of its hypothetical contributing structures in
which electrons are localized on particular atoms
and in particular bonds
• One way to estimate the resonance energy of
benzene is to compare the heats of hydrogenation
of benzene and cyclohexene

• comparing 3 x DH° for cyclohexene with DH° for
benzene, it is estimated that the resonance energy of
benzene is approximately 36 kcal/mol

9 Acidity of Phenols
• We account for the increased acidity of phenols
relative to alcohols in the following way
• delocalization of the negative charge on a phenoxide
ion stabilizes it relative to an alkoxide ion
• because a phenoxide ion are more stable than an
alkoxide ion, phenols are stronger acids than alcohols
• Note that while this reasoning helps us to
understand why phenols are more acidic than
alcohols, it does not give us any way to predict
how much stronger they are

9 Disubstitution
• Existing groups on benzene ring influence further
substitution in both orientation and rate
• Orientation:
• certain substituents direct preferentially to ortho & para
positions; others direct preferentially to meta positions
• substituents are classified as either
ortho-para directing or meta directing
9-47
Copyright © 2000 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
9 Disubstitution
• Rate:
• certain substituents cause the rate of a second
substitution to be greater than that for benzene itself;
others cause the rate to be lower
• substituents are classified as
• activating toward further substitution, or
• deactivating

• From the information in Table 9.2, we can make
these generalizations
• alkyl groups, phenyl groups, and all groups in which
the atom bonded to the ring has an unshared pair of
electrons are ortho-para directing. All other groups are
meta directing
• all ortho-para directing groups except the halogens are
activating toward further substitution. The halogens
are weakly deactivating

9 Theory of Directing Effects
• The rate of EAS is limited by the slowest step in
the mechanism
• for almost every EAS, the rate-limiting step is attack of
E+ on the aromatic ring to form a resonance-stabilized
cation intermediate
• the more stable this cation intermediate, the faster the
rate-limiting step and the faster the overall reaction
9-55

9 Theory of Directing Effects
• For ortho-para directors, ortho-para attack forms
a more stable cation than meta attack
• ortho-para products are formed faster than meta
products
• For meta directors, meta attack forms a more
stable cation than ortho-para attack
• meta products are formed faster than ortho-para
products
