(a)
Interpretation:
- The contribution of resonance structure to resonance hybrid of the given following has to be investigated.
Concept Introduction:
Resonance Contributor: The appropriate structure with the localized electrons is called a resonance contributor, a resonance structure, or a contributing resonance structure.
Delocalized electrons: The sharing of electrons between two or more atoms known as delocalization of electrons. In order to have delocalized electrons, the system must be planar and have alternative double bonds and single bonds.
Resonance hybrid: the actual structure with delocalized electrons is called a resonance hybrid.

Propose a 'cutoff for the amount of negative charge needed to be a good nucleophile. CH3CH₂O CH3CO₂ CH3SO3 H₂O CH3OHarrow_forwardCopy the given reaction and show the mechanism by supplying the appropriate curved arrows. Also, identify the general type of reaction mechanism (polar or non-polar). For polar reaction mechanisms, label the nucleophile and the electrophile. :0: :0 O.. H. HÖ: Hö:arrow_forward
- Draw the full electron pushing mechanism for the reaction depicted including ALL intermediates (with lone pairs and formal charges). Clearly label the electrophile and nucleophile in each step where appropriate.arrow_forward3. Draw the major product in the following reaction and reaction mechanism. Remember when drawing a reaction mechanism, you need to show all nonbonding electron pairs, formal charges, electron flow arrows, and all resonance structures. What is the name of this mechanism? Determine and circle whether the substituent is an activator or deactivator. Explain what is meant by being an activator or deactivator and circle the single resonance structure that supports your decision regarding the substituent in the starting material.

Clearly label the electrophile and nucleophile in each step where appropriate.arrow_forward
- Follow the curved arrows and draw the products of the following reaction. Include all lone pairs and charges as appropriate. Drawarrow_forwardwe will discuss whether a methoxy group is electron donating or electron withdrawing. We will see that there is a competition between two factors. The methoxy group might be considered electron-withdrawing because of induction, or it might be considered electron-donating because of resonance. Below are the resonance structures of compound 1. Draw the missing curved arrow(s) to convert the each resonance structure into the next one...arrow_forwardIn the picture, Each of the following compounds has more than one kind of (a-H's). First draw all a-H in, and circle the ones that are more acidic (that is, the ones more likely removed with a suitable base) in each compound. Thank you!arrow_forward
