Chapter 28, Problem 28.5P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why the unpaired electron in the allyl radical is delocalized over C1, C3 positions with the help of resonance structures is to be stated.

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. The delocalization of electrons results in the formation of resonance structure.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why the unpaired electron in the allyl radical is delocalized over C1, C3 positions with the help of molecular orbital arguments is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The molecular orbital is a combination of two atomic orbitals. It is used to represent the regions in a molecule where the electron is likely to be present in an orbital. It represents the wave-like nature of an electron in a molecule.
