The benzene radical anion, well-known in organic chemistry as the first intermediate in the Birch reduction of benzene in liquid ammonia, exhibits intriguing properties from the point of view of quantum chemistry. Notably, it has the character of a metastable shape resonance in the gas phase, while measurements in solution find it to be experimentally detectable and stable. In this light, our previous calculations performed in bulk liquid ammonia explicitly reveal that solvation leads to stabilization. Here, we focus on the transiti
