Molecule C shown below contains a group called an allene. An allene has the structure of one central carbon being doubly bonded to two other carbons (C=C=C). Please draw out all of the p-orbitals that are involved in the pi-system for molecule C. b) The p-orbital on carbon 1 in molecule C are not in conjugation with the p-orbital on carbon 2 (ie the p- orbitals are not pointing in the same direction and there is no overlap). Why does this happen?
