Description

We have calculated the structures, the heats of hydrogenation and the resonance energies of benzene isomers. All structures and energies were calculated by using the MMX force fields. Using PC model, the calculated structure parameters of benzene's 8 isomers are generally in good agreements with the experimental data. The heats of hydrogenation and resonance energy of benzene isomers are parallel to those experimental data and need a. systematic adjustment of 4.5 kJ/mol.
