Chapter 17, Problem 49DSP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The most stable isomer of vicinal diol formed by the biological oxidation of naphthalene through an epoxide intermediate is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Aromatic compounds are comparatively more stable than non-aromatic compounds.

The aromaticity of any compound is determined on the basis of Hückel’s rule.

The Hückel’s rule states that the molecule must be planar, cyclic, must have fully conjugated system, and possess (4n+2)π electrons where n is a whole number.
