Abstract
AbstractIonic pi‐electron structures are used as a rationale for discussing aromatic electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions. It is shown that an ionic representation of aromaticity is superior to the hitherto adopted system of resonating Kekulé structures. The observed orientation effects in aromatic substitution reactions are consistent with a general ionic reactivity scheme.
