Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.1P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: All possible resonance structures for the antihistamine diphenhydramine are to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Resonance structure is a blend of two or more Lewis structures. Resonance structures are represented by a double headed arrow between the structures.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 17.1P
All possible resonance structures for the antihistamine diphenhydramine are,
Explanation of Solution
The given structure of antihistamine diphenhydramine is shown below.
Figure 1
The given structure contains oxygen and nitrogen atoms and these atoms are not conjugated with any double bond. Thus, the lone pairs of these atoms do not participate in the resonance. Hence, possible resonance structures for the antihistamine diphenhydramine are shown below.
Figure 2
Conclusion
All possible resonance structures for the antihistamine diphenhydramine are shown in Figure 2.

Draw the seven resonance structures for the tropylium cation.
Aspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid, widely used as a
fever reducer and as a pain killer. Salicylic acid, whose name comes from Salix, the
willow family of plants, was derived from willow bark extracts. In folk medicine, willow
bark teas were used as headache remedies and other tonics. Nowadays, salicylic acid
is administered in the form of aspirin which is less irritating to the stomach than salicylic
acid. To prepare aspirin, salicylic acid is reacted with an excess of acetic anhydride.
A small amount of a strong acid is used as a catalyst which speeds up the reaction. In
this experiment, phosphoric acid will be used as the catalyst. The excess acetic acid
will be quenched with the addition of water. The aspirin product is not very soluble in
water so the aspirin product will precipitate when water is added. The synthesis
reaction of aspirin is shown below:
