Encyclopedia > Delocalised electron

In chemistry, delocalized electrons are electrons in a molecule that do not belong to a single atom or a covalent bond. Delocalized electrons are part of a pi electron system that extends over several adjacent atoms. Delocalized electrons can be found in Conjugated systems of double bonds and in aromatic systems.


In the simple aromatic ring benzene the delocalization of six pi electrons electrons over the whole ring is often indicated by the circle:

In physics delocalized electrons are electrons in a molecule that are not associated with a single atom or a covalent bond.
Electron density is the measure of the probability of an electron being present at a specific location.
Delocalized electron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (290 words)
In physics delocalized electrons are electrons in a molecule that are not associated with a single atom or a covalent bond.
A case of delocalized electrons occurs also in solid metals, where the d-subshell interferes with the above s-subshell, and contributes to the properties of a metal.
This means that the electrons are free to move throughout the structure, and gives rise to properties such as conductivity.
