Question
Chapter 12, Problem 43P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
From the two resonance forms of calicene, the better correspond to the electron distribution in the molecule is to be determined and the reason for the statement that this form is more important than the other is to be explained and the compound which is more stabilized to greater extent is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Electrostatic potential maps represent the charge distribution in a molecule using different colors. A region of red color represents higher negative charge while that of blue color represents higher positive charge.
In molecules containing rings, a resonance form that gives the ring(s)

Cyanic acid (HOCN) and isocyanic acid (HNCO) dissolve in water to give the same anion upon deprotonation. (i) Draw Lewis structures for cyanic acid and isocyanic acid. (ii) Using arrow pushing and resonance, account for the fact that each acid gives the same anion on loss of H+ when reacted with NaOH.
Hydrocarbon A possesses a significant dipole, even though it is composed of only C—C and C—H bonds. Explain why the dipole arises and use resonance structures to illustrate the direction of the dipole. Which ring is more electron rich?
The curved arrow notation introduced in Section 1.6B is a powerfulmethod used by organic chemists to show the movement of electronsnot 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 andformed in a reaction. Consider the following three-step process. (a) Addcurved arrows in Step [1] to show the movement of electrons. (b) Use thecurved arrows drawn in Step [2] to identify the structure of X. X isconverted in Step [3] to phenol and HCl.
