What would be the correct structural formula for the below compound:

Would it be CH2CHCHNNHC6H3(NO2)2

Please help!

I don't see why not.
You need to show where on the ring the NO2 groups are.

I think you can use the skeletal formula of benzene as its structural formula, so it would be:
CH2CHCHNNH- benzene ring with the 2 NO2 groups

Is the original one I put forward correct, or any part of it?
