In the compound (CH3)3N=CH2, how is the lewis structure formed,
considering that the octet rule must be maintained, but only one of
the three CH3's actually become a CH2? Also, is the reason why
(CH3)3N(+) - (-C:)H2 not permissible because the Carbon atom on CH2
has too many electrons, and the cation should be on Nitrogen
instead? This is in regards to Organic Chemistry (10th Ed) Problem
19P in chapter 1.
