  Custom eBook for Organic Chemistry, Chapter 5, Problem 22CTQ

Concept introduction: Rules to form resonance structure are as follows:

1. Use arrow types 1 and 2 for resonance structure of anions in movement of negative charge.

2. Use only arrow type 3 to move a positive charge for resonance structure of cations.

3. The sigma bond should not be broken. Any atom must not move from its place and total number of electrons must be same in all resonance structures.
