(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)

- 5. The structure of anthocyanin, a naturally occurring compound that acts as a pigment in many fruits and vegetables, is given below. At low pH values (<3), it exists as the cation shown below and exhibits a bright red color. At higher pH values (-7), it exhibits a purple-ish color, indicating a shift to a longer wavelength absorption in the UV-visible spectrum. As the pH is raised from pH 3 to pH 7, one of the hydroxyl groups can be deprotonated (the H that is removed has been circled for you) to produce the corresponding resonance stabilized neutral compound. Draw the two most stable Lewis octet resonance structures for this anthocyanin at pH 7. Make sure to explicitly show all non-bonding lone pairs and formal charges where appropriate. Include curved arrows to show how you got from the first resonance structure to the other. 5. :: :: HO 0:0 : ÖH :O: -[sugar] anthocyanidin structure at pH 3 red color compound (H+) first structure here second structure here 1 -arrow_forwardPredict the products of the following reactions.arrow_forward(a) Tsomane and Nyiko were given a task of synthesising methylenecyclohexane 2.
