Vitamin B 6 is an organic compound whose deficiency in the human body can cause apathy, irritability, and an increased susceptibility to infections. Below is an incomplete Lewis structure for vitamin B 6 . Complete the Lewis structure and answer the following questions. Hint: Vitamin B 6 can be classified as an organic compound (a compound based on carbon atoms). The majority of Lewis structures for simple organic compounds have all atoms with a formal charge of zero. Therefore, add lone pairs and multiple bonds to the structure below to give each atom a formal charge of zero. a. How many σ bonds and π bonds exist in vitamin B 6 ? b. Give approximate values for the bond angles marked a through g in the structure. c. How many carbon atoms are sp 2 hybridized? d. How many carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms are sp 3 hybridized? e. Does vitamin B 6 exhibit delocalized π bonding? Explain.
