Chapter 1, Problem 1.53P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

All resonance contributors for the given molecule are to be drawn. The curved arrows that indicate which pairs of electrons are shifted in going from one resonance structure to the next are to be included.

Concept introduction:

Resonance exists in molecules or ions for which there are two or more valid Lewis structures. For such molecules or ions, each valid Lewis structure is called a resonance contributor. Resonance contributors differ only in the position of their valence electrons, not their atoms.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

All resonance contributors for the given ion are to be drawn. The curved arrows that indicate which pairs of electrons are shifted in going from one resonance structure to the next are to be included.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
1. What is resonance contributor in which one or more atoms bears a formal change and the most stable resonance form? 2.what is the process of distributing electron pairs in a molecule? 3. Are organic molecules which are less sterically hindered more attractive than those which are more sterically hindered?
The curved arrow notation introduced in Section 1.6B is a powerful method used by organic chemists to show the movement of electrons not only in resonance structures, but also in chemical reactions.Because each curved arrow shows the movement of two electrons, following the curved arrows illustrates what bonds are broken and formed in a reaction. Consider the following three-step process. (a) Add curved arrows in Step [1] to show the movement of electrons. (b) Use the curved arrows drawn in Step [2] to identify the structure of X. X is converted in Step [3] to phenol and HCl.
In which of the following ions does carbon have a formal charge? Explain your answer. A) I B) II C) III D) None of these
