Cross-conjugation is a concept primarily used in the field of chemistry, particularly in the study of molecular orbital theory and conjugated systems. It generally refers to a type of conjugation where double bonds or other forms of pi-bonding are separated by a single bond, allowing for the delocalization of electrons across non-adjacent pi bonds. In cross-conjugated systems, the alignment and overlap of p orbitals contribute to the stabilization of the molecule due to resonance.
