Abstract

Two formulae for computing resonance energies of benzenoid
hydrocarbons within the conjugated-circuit model are considered.
The first is Randić's original formula developed in 1976 and the second is the result of the analysis of the foundations of the conjugated-circuit model in term s of the Simpson-Herndon model Hamiltonians. Both formulae produce very similar resonance energies. This analysis thus justifies Randić's ini ti al choi ce of circuits and their parameters.
