Apr 4, 2023 at 13:05 comment added Ham Lemon Ok, so i get what you are trying to say, but just another thing to be sure of, is it possible for a monocyclic planar molecule with 4n+2 π electrons to be non aromatic just because it does not have continuous conjugation (and rather has cross conjugation)?
Apr 4, 2023 at 12:27 comment added Ivan Neretin Yes, that's pretty impressive for an organic acid that does not even have a -COOH group.
Apr 4, 2023 at 10:55 comment added Oscar Lanzi The aromatic character of the carbonyl ring anions is one factor that makes the neutral compounds relatively strong acids. Croconic acid, in particular, has a second deprotonation constant approaching that of sulfuric acid, without the use of halogen or cyano functions.
