Due to this dipole, sigma bonded electrons in the carbon chain becomes polarised. Suchpolarisation of bond caused by the polarisation of adjacent bond is referred to as the inductive effect.Ex.;Note : (i) It is a permanent effect(ii) It is distance dependent(iii) It is operated through bond not through bond(iv) It is negligible after three carbon atom(v) C–H bond is the reference of inductive effect i.e. polarity of C–H bond is considered to be negligible.Inductive effects are of two types :(i) –I effect :The atom or group which withdraws electron clouds is known as–I group and effect is called–I effect.Decreasing order of –I effect : – – – NO2 –SO3H –CN – CHO – COOH – F – Cl – Br – I – OR – OH – C CH – NH2 – C6H5 – CH CH2 – H.(ii) I effect :The group which releases or donates electron clouds is known as I group & effect is called I effect.Decreasing order of I effect : – C(CH3)3 – CH(CH3)2 – CH2–CH3 – CH3 T – D – HDirection of electron displacements1. -OOCCH2CH2CH32.

These lewis structures are called resonating structure or canonical structure or contributingstructures. Resonating structuresResonance hybrid(It is the actual structure) OrOrThe resonance structures are hypothetical and individually do not represent any real molecule. But they allcontribute to a real structure which is called resonance hybrid.The resonance hybrid is more stable than any resonating structure.The most stable resonating structure contribute maximum to the resonance hybrid and least stable resonatingstructure contribute minimum to resonance hybrid.JEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 2

Resonance energy :The P.E. difference between the most stable resonating structure and resonance hybrid is called resonanceenergy. The stability of molecule is directly proportional to resonance energy.Conditions for resonance :1. All atoms participating in resonance must be sp or sp2 hybridised.2. The parallel p-orbitals overlap to each other.3. Molecule should have conjugated system (parallel p-orbitals system is called conjugate system)Types of Conjugation :1. Conjugation between C C and C C () 2. Conjugation between ve charge and C C ( 3. Conjugation between lone pair and C C ( 4. Conjugation between odd electron and C C (CH2 CH – 5. Conjugation between negative charge and C C ( ))– CH CH2))Rules for writing resonating structure :(i) In resonating structure only p-orbitals electron are shifted, bond electron are not involved in resonance,therefore the bond skeleton will remain same in two resonating structures.CH2 CH – CH CH2 (ii) The movement of atoms are not allowed.CH2 CH – CH CH2CH3 – CH C CH2(iii) The no. of paired e– are same and no. of unpaired electron are same in two resonating structures.CH2 CH – CH CH2(iv) The octet rule is not violated (for second period element).CH2 CH –(v) High energy structures are rejected as resonating structure and their contribution to the resonance hybridis negligible.Opposite charges on adjacent atoms and similar charges on adjacent atoms are cases of high energy.These are not accepted as resonating structures.CH2 CH – CH CH2Not consider as the resonating structuresJEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 3

So that this effect is also known asconjugate effect and distance independent.Types of Mesomeric effect :(i) m effect(ii) – m effect(i) m group (Electron releasing group) :A group, first atom of which bears -ve charge or lone pair always shows m effect. Due to m effect theelectron density of benzene ring is increased particularly on ortho and para positions.Relative order of m group :– O –NH2 –NHR –NR2 –OH –OR –NHCOR –OCOR –Ph –F –Cl –Br –I –NO(a)(b)(ii) – m group (Electron withdrawing group) :A group that contains double bond or triple bond between hetero atoms will show –m effect.

This phenomenonis called hyperconjugation. If may take place in alkene, alkynes, carbocations and carbon free radicals.Like resonance hyperconjugation is also a stabilising effect but the effect of resonance is more dominatingthan hyperconjugation, since in resonance only p-orbital overlap while in hyperconjugation molecularorbitals overlap with p- molecular orbital.* Hyperconjugation is also called no bond resonance or Baker Nathan Effect.Number of hyperconjugative structure Number of -hydrogen atoms at sp3 hybridised -carbon atoms.* Condition : sp3 hybrid C–H or C–D must be present adjacent to the C /C /C C/C C.Important points :(i) It is distance independent.(ii) Not applicable at carbanion.(iii) Hybridisation of atoms remains unchanged.

It is defined as the complete transfer of a shared pair of -electrons to one of theatoms joined by a multiple bond on the demand of an attacking reagent. The organic compound having amultiple bond ( double or triple bond) show this effect in the presence of an attacking reagent only. It isrepresented by E and the shifting of the electrons is shown by a curved arrow.There are two types of eletromeric effect.(i) E effect : In this effect -electron of the multiple bond transferred to that atom to which the reagent getsattached. E– CH2 – ECH2 CH2(ii) – E effect : In this effect the -electron of the multiple bond transferred to that atom to which the attackingreagent does not get attached. NCWhen inductive and electromeric effects operate in opposite directions then the electromeric effect dominates.JEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 7

These neutral divalentcarbon species are called carbenes. Most carbenes are highly unstable that are capable of only fleetingexistence. Soon after carbenes are formed, they usually react with another molecules.Methods of preparation of carbene :CHCl3 CH2N2N2 : CH2Types of carbene(E)CH2I2 Zn: CCl2: CH2CH2 C OSinglet: CH2 CO TripletShapeBentHybridisationspNature of reactionstereospecificNoneStateExcited stateGround stateMagneticDiamagneticParamagneticNaturePaired electronsDiradical2LinearspNitrenesThe nitrogen analog of carbenes are nitrenes. They are very much reactive since in them octet of N isincomplete.In nitrenes only one valency of N is satisfied.(F)BenzyneThe benzene ring has one extra C – C bond in benzyneClearly, we can see that the newly formed bond cannot enter in resonance with other orbitals of ring. sinceit is in perpendicular plane.It is also important to note that hybridisation of each carbon involved in 'Benzynic bond' is sp2 since theoverlap between these sp2 hybrid orbitals is not so much effective.JEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 11

8.Tautomerism :Definition :Tautomerism is a phenomenon by which a single compound exists in two or more readily interconvertiblestructures that differ in the relative positions of at least one atomic nucleus, generally hydrogen.These two isomers remain in dynamic equilibrium, can be isolated and also give different lab test.Conditions :1. Usually present in the following functional groups2. Basic need for its existence is attachment of these groups with the sp3 hybridised C-atom havingatleast one hydrogen atom as –To get tautomer of above structures -hydrogen atom is shifting to more electronegative atom attachedto double bond (i.e. hydrogen atom from 1st atom to 3rd atom) and double bond is developed between1,2-atom from 2,3-atom. This can be represented as :H–C–C O2 31Keto–C C – OHenolThese two forms (remain in equilibrium) are called tautomers of each other. The interconvertibility oftautomers is a chemical reaction which involves making and breaking of bonds.Ex.O (a) CH3 C CH3( I)OH CH2 C CH3( II)(c)(b)(d)% Enol content in the carbonyl compounds :(i) For monocarbonyl generally it is very less.(ii) Enol content increases with increase in the stability of enol by hyperconjugation, hydrogen bonding,resonance etc.Decreasing order of enol content for above carbonyl compounds is : 3 2 1.JEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 12

(iii) For a carbonyl compound having active methylene group percentage of enol content will be morebecause enolic form has intramolecular H-bonding and also it will be stabilised by resonance.(iv) If active methylene group is more acidic then enol content will be more.For example in acetyl acetoneenolic content is 75–76% while it is 7–8% inacetoacetic ester because ester group shows less electron withdrawing nature than keto group.(v) Percentage of enol content is more in non-polar media while % of keto form is more in polar media.(vi) A carbonyl compound having chiral -hydrogen atom racemizes in aqueous solution.9.Acidic Strength :Definitions :(1) Arrhenius Acid : The compounds which furnish H ion in aqueous solution are called Arrhenius acids.Ex. H2SO4, HNO3, HCl, HClO4 etc.(2) Bronsted Acids : The species, which are proton (H ion) donors, are called Bronsted acids.Ex. NH4 , H3O , etc. All Arrhenius acids are Bronsted acids.(3) Lewis Acids : The lone pair acceptors are known as lewis acids. They have vacant p or d orbitals.Ex. BX3, AlX3, ZnX2 etc.Scale for Measurement of Acid Strength :R–COOHR–COO(Conjugated base)(Acid) RCOO H Ka H RCOOH Where Ka acid dissociation constant.A strong acid is defined as the acid which furnish more number of H ion in aqueous solutionSo, a stronger acid has higher value of Ka , or it has lower value of pKa.pKa –log Ka(More Ka or less pKa i.e. more acidic compound)Note : A stronger acid has more stable conjugate base.Factors affecting stability of conjugate base/anion :Presence of EWG in the alkyl (–R) part of the acid increases stability of anion, and hence increases acidicstrength.EWG — R – C – O(–m, – I)OMore stableERG — R – C – O( m, I, H.C.)OLess stableJEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 13

Alternatively I and m groups decreases acid strength.Ex.(a)Ans.acid strength order :Sol.Step 1. III will be least acidic as it has no dispersion of negative charge (No delocalisation of negativecharge).I II IV V IIIStep 2. since – I, – m group will increase acid strength, Nitrophenol will be most acidic followed by phenol,Step 3. Amongst cresol and methoxyphenol, methoxyphenol has m effect of – OCH3 which increases e density hence decrease acidic strengthEx.(b)Ans.acid strengh order :Sol.Step 1 : Notice that CH3 have I effect so all methylphenols (cresols) are less acidic than phenol (I).I III II IVStep 2 : Now amongst cresols p- and o- CH3 are increasing the e density due to their hyper conjugation butortho isomer has viable I effect also, which will help in destabilising phenoxide ion therefore o- is leastacidic. Since at meta position only I works it as least e density amongst the cresol.JEE(MAIN) ELECTRONIC EFFECTS & APPLICATIONS - 14

Ex.(c)Ans.Sol.Acid strength order :II IV III IStep 1. In nitrophenols – I effect of NO2 will help to increase acidic strength hence phenol is least acidicamongst all nitrophenolsStep 2. Only –I effect is applicable in meta nitrophenol so it will be number three. Now –o, –p have both –Iand –m effect of NO2 group over OH and in this particular case para isomer is more acidic than ortho nitrophenol because of intramolecular H–bond.H is trapped by NO2 group.(D)Acidity of carboxylic acids :Conjugate base of carboxylic acid exists as two equivalent cannonical structures (A) and (B). This ion isresonance stablised and resonance hybrid structure is (C).
