Chapter 6, Problem 6.33P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The two possible resonance structures for the radical formed by the homolysis of indicated bond in propene are to be drawn.

Concept introduction: In organic chemistry, the formation of carbocation, carbanion and free radical occurs due to the heterolysis or homolysis process. Homolysis is opposite to the heterolysis. It forms radical with an unpaired electron.

Resonance is the delocalisation of π electrons in conjugated positions which leads to the formation of more than one structure. These structures are known as resonance structures.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The half-headed curved arrows are to be used to illustrate the conversion of one resonance structure to other.

Concept introduction: Curved arrows aid in determining the movement and flow of electrons in the reaction. The electrons that take part in the chemical reactions are shown by the curved arrows. An electronegative element in the reaction attracts electron toward it.

Half headed arrows are used to show the flow of single electrons, while the full headed arrow shows the movement of electron pairs.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation: The structure of the resonance hybrid is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: Resonance is the delocalisation of π electrons in conjugated position which leads to the formation of more than one structure. These structures are known as resonance structures.
