The aromaticity of the benzene nucleus is essentially retained when 1 is oxidized to 1 4⊕ . This was revealed by comparison of experimental and calculated structural parameters, which are best in agreement with the resonance structure shown on the right for 1 4⊕ . The triplet ground state which, in principle, is conceivable for 1 4⊕ was, however not found.
