Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of 2-methylpentyl S-2-diethylaminoethylethylphosphonothiolate. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds: Count the total valence electrons of the carbon (n_C, val = 4), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), nitrogen (n_N, val = 5), oxygen (n_O, val = 6), phosphorus (n_P, val = 5), and sulfur (n_S, val = 6) atoms: 11 n_C, val + 26 n_H, val + n_N, val + 2 n_O, val + n_P, val + n_S, val = 98 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), nitrogen (n_N, full = 8), oxygen (n_O, full = 8), phosphorus (n_P, full = 8), and sulfur (n_S, full = 8): 11 n_C, full + 26 n_H, full + n_N, full + 2 n_O, full + n_P, full + n_S, full = 180 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 180 - 98 = 82 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so we expect that the above diagram has all the necessary bonds. However, to minimize formal charge oxygen wants 2 bonds. Identify the atom that wants additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom: In order to minimize their formal charge, atoms with large electronegativities can force atoms with smaller electronegativities on period 3 or higher to expand their valence shells. The electronegativities of the atoms are 2.19 (phosphorus), 2.20 (hydrogen), 2.55 (carbon), 2.58 (sulfur), 3.04 (nitrogen), and 3.44 (oxygen). Because the electronegativity of phosphorus is smaller than the electronegativity of oxygen, expand the valence shell of phosphorus to 5 bonds. Therefore we add a total of 1 bond to the diagram: Answer: | |
