Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of 2-chloro-4-fluorotoluene-α-13 C. 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), chlorine (n_Cl, val = 7), fluorine (n_F, val = 7), and hydrogen (n_H, val = 1) atoms: 7 n_C, val + n_Cl, val + n_F, val + 6 n_H, val = 48 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), chlorine (n_Cl, full = 8), fluorine (n_F, full = 8), and hydrogen (n_H, full = 2): 7 n_C, full + n_Cl, full + n_F, full + 6 n_H, full = 84 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 84 - 48 = 36 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 15 bonds already present in the diagram add 3 bonds. To minimize formal charge carbon wants 4 bonds. Identify the atoms that want additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom: Fill in the 3 bonds by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms. Note that the six atom ring is aromatic, so that the single and double bonds may be rearranged: Answer: | |
