Chapter 1, Problem 46P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: All the lone pairs present in creatine are to be shown.

Concept introduction: Creatine is a dietary supplement. Generally athletes use Creatine to boost their performance and to increase strength. Resonance structure is a blend of two or more Lewis structures. Resonance structures are represented by a double headed arrow between the structures.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: Two additional resonance structures of creatine that depicts all lone pairs and formal charges are to be drawn.

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.
