Lewis structure
![Draw the Lewis structure of 1-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene. 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), fluorine (n_F, val = 7), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), and silicon (n_Si, val = 4) atoms: 12 n_C, val + 3 n_F, val + 13 n_H, val + n_Si, val = 86 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), fluorine (n_F, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), and silicon (n_Si, full = 8): 12 n_C, full + 3 n_F, full + 13 n_H, full + n_Si, full = 154 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 154 - 86 = 68 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 29 bonds already present in the diagram add 5 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 5 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: | |](../image_source/f5dd90418135a462bf60d24cfbc0011b.png)
