(a)
Interpretation:
The delocalization of the positive charge, unpaired electron and negative charge of the benzyl cation, radical and anion using their resonance forms is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Most of the organic structures cannot be represented using a single Lewis structure. Therefore, there exists more than one Lewis structure for representing a molecule or ion. These structures are known as resonance structures. These are the hypothetical structures and do not specify the exact structure. These resonance structures combine to give a resonance hybrid that is lower in energy and is the most stable structure.
(b)
Interpretation:
The information regarding the formation of benzyl bromide by the reaction between toluene and bromine in the presence of light is given. The mechanism for the given reaction is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A free radical reaction occurs in the presence of UV light. It involves three steps initiation, propagation and termination reaction. The
(c)
Interpretation:
Two different types of reactions are given. The reaction that will have a faster rate and give better yield using the drawing of the transition state is to be stated.

IN Ill I -N S OMe D II H CO₂H 1/111 DuckDuckGarrow_forwardThese are synthesis questions. You need to show how the starting material can be converted into the product(s) shown. You may use any reactions we have learned. Show all the reagents you need. Show each molecule synthesized along the way and be sure to pay attention to the regiochemistry and stereochemistry preferences for each reaction. If a racemic molecule is made along the way, you need to draw both enantiomers and label the mixture as "racemic". All of the carbon atoms of the products must come from the starting material! ?
