Talk:Claus' benzene

structure
it would be useful to include a more 3d structure. the 2d structure indicates crossed bonds.


 * I think there is no 3D drawing of Claus benzene because it was obsolete at the point when chemists became interested in the 3D structure of molecules. At the time of Claus the crossing bonds were no problem and the 3D structure was of no concern to him. The planarity of benzene was postulated much later. --Stone (talk) 10:01, 13 May 2010 (UTC)


 * you will find many mol images with crossed bonds, 3D images do not always solve perception problems, the text also helps to explain what the molecule is all about. V8rik (talk) 20:26, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
