Stability order of isomeric benzenoid hydrocarbons and Kekulé structure count
The commonly accepted opinion that the thermodynamic stability of isomeric benzenoid hydrocarbons (assessed by their total π-electron energy and various resonance energies) increases with increasing number of Kekulé structures is shown to be violated in numerous cases. The smallest examples of such...
