Options

  1. A6 p-orbitals and 6 unpaired electrons
  2. B7 p-orbitals and 6 unpaired electrons
  3. C7 p-orbitals and 7 unpaired electrons
  4. D6 p-orbitals and 7 unpaired electrons

Correct answer

A. 6 p-orbitals and 6 unpaired electrons

Step-by-step solution

The radical because it has
Because of the presence of 6 p-orbitals and 6 unpaired electrons, it is aromatic in nature as these unpaired electrons delocalise in p-orbitals.
