Chapter 14, Problem 30E
Hot and spicy foods contain molecules that stimulate pain-detecting nerve endings. Two such molecules are piperine and capsaicin:
Piperine is the active compound in white and black pepper, and capsaicin is the active compound in chili peppers.The ring structures in piperine and capsaicin are shorthand notation. Each point where lines meet represents acarbon atom.
- Complete the Lewis structures for piperine and capsaicin, showing all lone pairs of electrons.
- How many carbon atoms are
- Which hybrid orbitals are used by the nitrogen atomsin each molecule?
- Give approximate values for the bond angles marked a through l in the above structures.

How do you know when to draw a solid wedge vs a dashed wedge when drawing 3D bond-line structures? I know that solid-wedge means the atom is pointing towards you and dashed wedge means it's in the back, but how do you know which atoms are in the front as opposed to the back? How can you tell what the configuration will look like in space just by looking at the lewis structure or name?
) Bean hexene is an odor compound used in cosmetics and cleaners. It is also known as leguminal. Its formula is:
CH3CH2CHCHCH2CH2OCHCH2CH3
|
OCH3
Please draw a Lewis structure for this compound with CORRECT GEOMETRY (use dashes and wedges!)
Label all pi bonds in the molecule (if there are any)
Indicate the bond angles for the red highlighted section of the molecule. (hint: you may want to keep the main carbon chain in-plane with the page for clarity)
For this question, you don’t need to draw out the orbitals.
