• This is really tough!

• We need analogies

• We need to innovate in communicating research

4n+2 Hückel’s rule

4n+2 Hückel’s rule strictly holds for monocyclic systems like benzene and

cyclooctatetraene (annulenes with planar symmetry)

But, are all molecules with electrons in a ring aromatic?
