Question

Question FOUR Consider the six pz orbitals on carbon atoms (the t-system) of the benzene molecule (Deh symmetry). These may be treated as vector arrows pointing vertically above the plane of the six-membered ring. (A) Work out the reducible representation for these six π- orbitals. (B) Reduce these to their irreducible components. (This gives the symmetry for the t-molecular orbitals of benzene.)
