Benzylic radical, resonance spin-density surface

Figure 16.20 A resonance-stabilized benzylic radical. The spin-density surface shows that the unpaired electron (blue) is shared by the ortho and para carbons of the ring.

The unpaired electron in benzyl radical is shared by the benzylic carbon and by the nng carbons that are ortho and para to it as shown by the spin density surface in Figure 119 Delocalization of the unpaired electron from the benzylic carbon to the ortho and para positions can be explained on the basis of resonance contributions from the fol lowing structures...
