Chad provides a lesson on the Pi Molecular Orbitals of Benzene and other aromatic and antiaromatic compounds. He begins with an introduction to Frost circles and how they are used to draw the MO diagrams of aromatic and antiaromatic compounds including benzene, the cyclopentadienyl anion, and cyclobutadiene. He concludes the lesson by showing how to draw each of the six pi molecular orbitals of benzene.
