This lecture explains how to determine aromaticity using Hückel’s rule, with the cycloheptatrienyl cation (tropylium ion) as a key example. The structure, planarity, conjugation, and π-electron count of the cycloheptatrienyl cation are discussed to show why it satisfies the (4n + 2) rule and is aromatic. In addition, the cycloheptatrienyl anion and cycloheptatrienyl radical are also examined. Although their electron counts might suggest nonaromatic or antiaromatic character, their lack of continuous planarity due to unpaired and paired electrons and effective conjugation makes them nonaromatic rather than antiaromatic.
