Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of 4-bromo-5-fluoro-2-iodotoluene. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds: Count the total valence electrons of the bromine (n_Br, val = 7), carbon (n_C, val = 4), fluorine (n_F, val = 7), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), and iodine (n_I, val = 7) atoms: n_Br, val + 7 n_C, val + n_F, val + 5 n_H, val + n_I, val = 54 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for bromine (n_Br, full = 8), carbon (n_C, full = 8), fluorine (n_F, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), and iodine (n_I, full = 8): n_Br, full + 7 n_C, full + n_F, full + 5 n_H, full + n_I, full = 90 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 90 - 54 = 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: | |
