This compound's structure was confirmed by Kathleen Lonsdale using X-ray diffraction.
This compound's structure was confirmed by Kathleen Lonsdale using X-ray diffraction. An isomer of this compound named for Dewar is formed from the conjunction of two cyclo-butene rings. This compound is bonded to a hydroxyl and carboxyl group in salicylic acid. Phenol is a hydroxyl derivative of this compound, and toluene is a methyl derivative. Hydrogenation of this compound produces cyclohexane. This compound is linked by resonance structures within the pi orbitals of its atoms rather than by three carbon double bonds, as in Friedrich Kekule's [key-koo-LEES] model. For 10 points, name this simplest aromatic hydrocarbon with formula C6H6
