In the molecular orbital model of the tropylium cation, how many π electrons are in bonding molecular orbitals ?
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
The seven-membered ring has one lowest bonding MO and a degenerate pair of bonding MOs below the non-bonding level. The 6 π electrons exactly fill these three bonding MOs, so all 6 are in bonding MOs.
