Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The additional resonance structures for the given anion are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The delocalization of lone pair or free electrons from one atom to another is known as resonance.
An ion that is formed by losing an electron from a neutral atom is known as cation. An ion that is formed by gaining an electron to a neutral atom is known as anion.

- How does resonance affect the acidity of a compound? Why is phenol more acidic in some alcohols and why is carboxylic acid more acidic?arrow_forwardWhat is X and Y? X Y OH X: Hg(OAC) 2, H₂O Y: NaBH4 X: BH3 Y: H₂O2 OX: H₂SO4 Y: H₂O All the choices are correctarrow_forwardQUESTION 2 The following is a proposed synthetic strategy that uses one starting alcohol in two separate single-step reactions (I and II) to make a pair of diene and dienophile which together undergo a Diels-Alder reaction to give a Diels-Alder product. The Diels-Alder product is subsequently converted to the final ether in a three-step synthesis (III, IV and V). Identify the reagent(s) from Table I required for each of those three sysnthese and place the number (A1, A2 reagent(s) in the given box right next to the corresponding step numbers (I to V) of the synthesis. DO NOT fill in any box with more than one number. (Note: This question is different from the previous synthesis question which allows two numbers for each box). You will be graded based on the number in each box. Do not fill in any single box with more than one number. Do not leave any box blank.
