Electronic Effects-I Inductive Effect If a Covalent Bond Is Formed Between Electronic Effects-I Inductive Effect If a covalent bond is formed between atoms having similar electronegativity, the bonding electrons will be shared equally between the two atoms. For example, in hydrogen molecule, the two hydrogen atoms have identical electronegativities. Therefore, the electron pair is shared equally between the two hydrogen atoms and so the molecular orbital (σ-bond) will be symmetrically distributed. Similarly, if we consider a chlorine molecule, the molecular orbital (σ- bond) formed between the two identical chlorine atoms is symmetrically distributed. This type of bond is called a non-polar covalent bond. When an electron-releasing or an electron- withdrawing species is introduced to a chain of atoms (generally a carbon chain), the corresponding negative or positive charge is relayed through the carbon chain by the atoms belonging to it. This causes a permanent dipole to arise in the molecule and is referred to as the inductive effect 1 H-Cl However, if we consider a hydrogen chloride molecule, the electron pair is not equally shared between hydrogen and chlorine because chlorine has a greater electronegativity than hydrogen. Therefore, the electron pair shifts towards the more electronegative atom. This causes polarization in the bond in which the more electronegative atom chlorine acquires a partial negative charge. This type of bond in which unequal sharing of electron pair between two atoms of different electronegativities are involved is called a polar covalent bond. The atom which has a greater share of the paired electrons is given a symbol δ- and the atom with a smaller share is given a symbol δ+. Thus, a polar covalent bond can be represented as: 2 3 Consider a chain of carbon atoms such as C4—C3—C2— C1—X with an atom X at the terminal having higher electronegativity than carbon. A positive charge (δ+) will appear on C1 which will not remain localized. Since C1 is positively charged, it will attract the bonding electron pair between C1 and C2. Hence, C2 will also become positively charged but the magnitude of positive charged on C2 will be less than C1. Similarly, C3 will also acquire a positive charge whose magnitude will be smaller than that on C2. This effect will be transmitted through out the length of carbon chain. Therefor it is termed as Inductive Effect. This type of electron displacement along a chain of σ – covalent bonds due to the presence of a polar bond is known as Inductive Effect. This effect is a permanent effect and decreases rapidly as the distance from the source increases. Inductive Effect on Acidity and Basicity Using the inductive effect, we can predict the acidity and basicity of compounds. As a generalisation it may be said that the electron-withdrawing groups (EWG) increase the 4 acidity of a compound and electron-donating group decrease the acidity of a compound. Thus, it can be said that, +I groups decrease acidity (or increase basicity) and –I groups increase acidity (or decrease basicity) of compounds. For Example, formic acid ( HCOOH) is more acidic than acetic acid (CH3COOH) due to the +I inductive effect of the methyl group attached to the carboxylic acid group. This is because, if we take the conjugate base of the acid, that is, RCOO-, if R is electron-withdrawing, then the conjugate base is stabilised via delocalisation of the formed negative charge. 5 If R had been electron-donating, then the conjugate base would be destabilised because of inter-electronic repulsions. Types of Inductive Effect Negative inductive effect or -I effect Positive inductive effect +I effect -I Effect (Negative Inductive Effect) When an electronegative atom, such as a halogen, is introduced to a chain of atoms (generally carbon atoms), the resulting unequal sharing of electrons generates a positive charge which is transmitted through the chain. This causes a permanent dipole to arise in the molecule wherein the electronegative atom holds a negative charge and the corresponding effect is called the electron withdrawing inductive effect, or the -I effect. +I Effect (Positive Inductive Effect) When a chemical species with the tendency to release or donate electrons, such as an alkyl group, is introduced to a carbon chain, the charge is relayed through the chain 6 and this effect is called the Positive Inductive Effect or the +I Effect Inductive Effect on Stability of Molecules The charge on a given atom and the charge on a group bonded to the atom play a strong part when determining the stability of the resulting molecule as per the inductive effect. An example of this can be observed when a group displaying the -I effect is bonded to a positively charged atom and the positive charge on the resulting molecule is amplified, reducing its stability. On the other hand, when a negatively charged atom is introduced to a group displaying a -I effect, the charge disparity is somewhat quenched and the resulting molecule would be stable as per the inductive effect. Also, When a group displaying the -I effect is bonded to a molecule, the electron density of the resulting molecule effectively reduces, making it more likely to accept 7 electrons and thereby increasing the acidity of the molecule. When a +I group attaches itself to a molecule, there is an increase in the electron density of the molecule. This increases the basicity of the molecule since it is now more capable of donating electrons. 8 .

The present paper is concerned with the ability of alkyl groups to serve as sigma inductive electron donors. The “inductive effect” remains an icon of chemical education and chemical thought. It is appreciated by students as a concept easily grasped, and it is a concept that is well liked by instructors as easy and rapid to present. However, the history of the “inductive effect,” in its various incarnations is hardly as smooth as these complacent attitudes might suggest.

  • Carboxylic Acids
    CARBOXYLIC ACIDS 1 Carboxylic Acids Introduction Carboxylic acids are organic compounds containing the carboxyl group (-COOH), wherein the hydroxyl group (-OH) is directly attached to the carbonyl (C=O) group. Carboxylic acids constitute one of the most frequently encountered classes of organic compounds in nature. 2 Natural Carboxylic Acids A great many carboxylic acids are encountered in nature, mostly, in fruits. Indeed carboxylic acids were among the first class of organic compounds to ever be isolated from nature. Edible carboxylic acids found in citrous fruits and fermented milk generally have sharp flavours. 3 Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acids The common names of some basic carboxylic acids are derived from Latin names that indicate the first original natural source of the carboxylic acid. Structure of Acid Natural Source Common Name O H C OH Ants (Formica) Formic acid O CH3 C OH Vinegar (Acetum) Acetic acid O CH3CH2 C OH Basic Fat (Propio) Propionic acid O CH3CH2CH2 C OH Rancid butter (Butyrum) Butyric acid Present in aValerian herb Valeric acid O 4 CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2 C OH Goat (Caper) Caproic acid Common Names of Carboxylic Acids The common name of a carboxylic acid (R-COOH) is derived by adding the suffix –ic acid to a prefix representing the chain length of the carboxylic acid. # of Carbons Prefix Common Name of Acid 1 Form- Formic acid 2 Acet- Acetic acid 3 Propion- Propionic acid 4 Butyr- Butyric acid 5 Valer- Valeric acid 6 Capro- Caproic acid Aromatic acid Benzo- Benzoic acid 5 IUPAC Nomenclature of Aliphatic Carboxylic Acids IUPAC names of straight chain aliphatic carboxylic acids are derived by adding the suffix –oic acid to the systematic name of the parent hydrocarbon.

  • Principles of Drug Action 1, Spring 2005, Resonance and Induction
    Principles Of Drug Action 1, Spring 2005, Resonance and Induction RESONANCE AND INDUCTION TUTORIAL Jack DeRuiter The terms "resonance" and "induction" refer to the electronic effects that atoms or functional groups may have within a compound. These effects are defined below and are dependent on the valence, bonding order and electronegativity of atoms, as well as the molecular geometry. Thus it is important that you understand these concepts prior to reviewing this tutorial. I. INDUCTION Induction or the inductive effect of an atom or functional group is a function of that groups 1). electronegativity, 2). bonding order and charge and 3). position within a structure. Inductive effects refer to those electronic effects of an atom or functional group can contribute through single bonds such as saturated (sp3) carbon atoms! This is very different from resonance effects discussed later in this section. The contribution of electronegativity, bonding order and position toward induction is as follows: Electronegativity: Atoms or functional groups that are electronegative relative to hydrogen such as the halogens, oxygen, nitrogen, etc. may have a negative inductive effect (-I), depending on their bonding order (see the Table below). Thus these atoms withdraw electron density through the single bond structure of a compound and can assist in the stabilization of negative charge that may form in reactions. One such reaction where -I groups can have a stabilizing (enhancing) effect is the ionization of acids. Consider the case of acetic acid, chloroacetic acid and trichloroacetic acid shown below. All three of these compounds can ionize (loss of proton from the carboxyl OH).

However, uncharted chemical spaces can be difficult to navigate, especially when materials synthesis is challenging. Nitrides represent one such space, where stringent synthesis constraints have limited the exploration of this important class of functional materials. Here, we employ a suite of computational materials discovery and informatics tools to construct a large stability map of the inorganic ternary metal nitrides. Our map clusters the ternary nitrides into chemical families with distinct stability and metastability, and highlights hundreds of promising new ternary nitride spaces for experimental investigation—from which we experimentally realized 7 new Zn- and Mg-based ternary nitrides. By extracting the mixed metallicity, ionicity, and covalency of solid-state bonding from the DFT- computed electron density, we reveal the complex interplay between chemistry, composition, and electronic structure in governing large-scale stability trends in ternary nitride materials.
