Topics
opics from Exam 1 & 2
1. (20 pts) ID functional groups and some easy stereochemistry
2. (12 pts) Draw all reasonable resonance structures for the following species. New structure, but similar to
previous.
3. (8 pts) Convert the following to a Newman Projection with the bold bond as the central axis, or to a Line
