Question
Chapter 15.4, Problem 15.4P
Interpretation Introduction
To determine: The resonance form for the substituted allylic cations in the preceding figures along with explanation of more or less resonance contributor of resonance forms.
Interpretation: The resonance form for the substituted allylic cations in the preceding figures is to be drawn. The second resonance form is a more important or less important resonance contributor than the first structure is to be shown.
Concept introduction: Allenes are the compounds in which two adjacent double bonds share common carbon atoms. These are also known as cumulative dienes. Cumulative dienes are different from conjugated dienes because conjugated dienes comprise double bonds separated by one single bond.

- Pairs of unshared electrons can be pushed. One Lewis structure for the methoxy-methyl cation is . The structure contains a pair of pushable electrons, namely, the unshared electrons on the atom. The structure also contains a positively charged atom that can act as a . A second resonance structure can be generated by pushing the unshared electrons to the receptor. Thus, It is not possible to push electrons toward the other carbon, because it is not a receptor. If you tried to push electrons to this carbon, you would generate a pentavalent carbon, which is not possible.arrow_forwardUse Huckel’s rule to identify if its aromatic or not.
