Talk:Clar's rule

Good article! Just added a link to a wikipedia page and changed the font from italic once --Aandre156 (talk) 12:46, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Content Suggestion

Instead of simply stating "Finally, it is important to mention that exceptions to the Clar's rule exist, such as in the case of triangluenes." as a fact, an explanation would be nice. I did not find an explanation in the linked article on triangluenes.

Otherwise really nice article, just made one small grammar correction Tmerbex92 (talk) 12:51, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Nice article! Just minor couple of minor suggestion that could be usefull:

• In the rule section when say "More recently, Clar's rule was further extended to biradicaloids in their singlet state." biardicaloids point to radicals page. You can write instead "biradicaloids, which are molecule that has got 2 radicalization processes".
• in the Experimental evidence and applications section when "Clar's rule is widely applied in the field of chemistry" you can expand addind "in chemistry and in material science

Observations and suggestions for improvements

The following observations and suggestions for improvements were collected, following expert review of the article within the Science, Technology, Society and Wikipedia course at the Politecnico di Milano, in June 2022.

Good article, from several point of view (language, organization, clarity, illustrations).

I have only a couple of suggestions: 1) In the figure "Three Clar structures with an increasing number of fused rings around a benzene moiety", if I interpret correctly rule 4., there shouldn't be the arrows pointing towards the central ring, in the case of phenanthrene (in the middle), and triphenylene (on the right). Also, in the figure caption, I suggest to write "The chemical stability of these compounds increases..." ("stability" could also mean "lower energy", but this does not make sense in this case). 2) This recent reference might be of interest, too: "Detailed Visualization of Aromaticity Using Isotropic Magnetic Shielding" (http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.202008362).

The article in Italian on the same topic is flagged as "orphan". Please add at least a link to this article from other wikipedia pages (for example, https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idrocarburi_policiclici_aromatici).
