Draw both resonance structures of the anion formed by the reaction of the most acidic C-H bond of the compound below with base. Include all valence lone pairs in your answer. For structures having different hydrogens of comparable acidity, assume that the reaction occurs at the less-substituted carbon. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate resonance structures using the ↔ symbol from the drop-down menu. OCH3

00:01 In this question, we're looking at this molecule here, and we're asked to draw all of the resonance structures when you lose the most acidic hydrogen.
00:11 So here we have a carbonyl.
00:14 So we look at the carbon or the atom next to it.
00:17 So that would be the alpha atom.
00:19 So alpha hydrogens are very acidic.
00:23 And here, since our oxygen here doesn't have hydrogens, our most acidic hydrogen will be here.
00:30 So we can redraw this as such.
00:36 So we say we have a strong base, let's say hydroxide here...
