Description:We compare the results of application of graph theory and of simple Hueckel theory in its traditional form to benzene, as an instance of a conjugated molecular system. The identity of the results of solution of eigenvalues of the vertex adjacency matrix and characteristic values of the Hueckel determinant prove the isomorphism of these two formalisms. Because of the gross deficiencies of the Hueckel theory, we advocate its elimination from the teaching of chemistry in favour of graph theory that has many applications to molecular topology.
