(a) Provide structures for A and B (including nonbonding electron pairs and formal
charges where necessary), where A is the conjugate acid and B is the conjugate base
of the reaction.
Answer:
(b) Provide and arrow pushing mechanism to show how A and B are formed.
Answer:
(c) Will the reaction proceed from left to right (i.e. are A and B favoured at equilibrium)?
Explain your answer.
Answer:
(d) Draw all important resonance contributors of the conjugate base B. Rank the
contributors from most stable to least stable (if contributors are equally stable indicate
this with an equals sign)
