Vitamin B6 is an organic compound whose deficiency in the human body can cause apathy, irritability, and an increased susceptibility to infections. Below is an incomplete Lewis structure for vitamin B6. Complete the Lewis structure and answer the following questions. Hint: Vitamin B6 can be classified as an organic compound (a compound based on carbon atoms). The majority of Lewis structures for simple organic compounds have all atoms with a formal charge of zero. Therefore, add lone pairs and multiple bonds to the structure below to give each atom a formal charge of zero. a. How many bonds and bonds exist in vitamin B6? b. Give approximate values for the bond angles marked a through g in the structure. c. How many carbon atoms are sp2 hybridized? d. How many carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms are sp3 hybridized? e. Does vitamin B6 exhibit delocalized bonding? Explain.
Aspartame is an artificial sweetener marketed under the name Nutra-Sweet. A partial Lewis structure for aspartame is shown below. Aspartame can be classified as an organic compound (a compound based on carbon atoms). The majority of Lewis structures for simple organic compounds have all atoms with a formal charge of zero. Therefore, add lone pairs and multiple bonds to the structure above to give each atom a formal charge of zero when drawing the Lewis structure. Also note that the six-sided ring is shorthand notation for a benzene ring (C6H5). Benzene is discussed in Section 4-7. Complete the Lewis structure for aspartame. How many C and N atoms exhibit sp1 hybridization? How many C and O atoms exhibit sp3 hybridization? How many and bonds are in aspartame?

Proteins are large molecules that affect almost every function of the human body. Proteins are composed of smaller building blocks called amino acids. The simplest amino acid is glycine. When dissolved in water, two atoms in a glycine molecule have a formal charge. In the lewis structure of glycine C2H5NO2 all bonds are drawn (image is provided), but the unbonded valence electrons (lone pairs) are missing. a. Copy the structure and draw the missing valence electrons (lone pairs). b. Locate the 2 atoms that have a nonzero formal charge. Calculate the charge at these sites.
