Relative aromaticity and reactivity of Pyrrole, Furan and Thiophene
The relative aromaticity and reactivity of the five-membered heterocyclic compounds—Pyrrole, Furan, and Thiophene—are governed by the electronegativity of the heteroatom and the effectiveness of the p-orbital overlap with the carbon atoms. Relative Aromaticity Aromaticity depends on how much a molecule “prefers” to keep its lone pair of the π -electrons delocalized into the ring to … Read more
