Lewis structure

Draw the Lewis structure of chlorpheniramine. 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), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), and nitrogen (n_N, val = 5) atoms: 16 n_C, val + n_Cl, val + 19 n_H, val + 2 n_N, val = 100 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), chlorine (n_Cl, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), and nitrogen (n_N, full = 8): 16 n_C, full + n_Cl, full + 19 n_H, full + 2 n_N, full = 190 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 190 - 100 = 90 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 39 bonds already present in the diagram add 6 bonds. To minimize formal charge nitrogen wants 3 bonds and carbon wants 4 bonds. Identify the atoms that want additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom:  Fill in the 6 bonds by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms. Note that the six atom rings are aromatic, so that the single and double bonds may be rearranged: Answer: |   |
