Inductive Effect
Dr Anju K. Gupta Associate Professor Department of Chemistry A.N. College, Patna Lecture note for B.Sc. (I) Subsidiary 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. 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 positive 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: 1 Dr Anju K. Gupta Associate Professor Department of Chemistry A.N. College, Patna Lecture note for B.Sc. (I) Subsidiary 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. -
Mesomeric Effect
Mesomeric effect +M effect of a methoxy group in an ether The mesomeric effect in chemistry is a property of substituents or functional groups in a chemical compound. It is defined as the polarity produced in the molecule by the interaction of two pi bonds or between a pi bond and lone –M effect of a carbonyl group in acrolein pair of electrons present on an adjacent atom. The effect is used in a qualitative way and describes the electron withdrawing or releasing properties of substituents based on relevant resonance structures and is symbolized by the letter M. The mesomeric effect is negative (–M) when the substituent is an electron-withdrawing group and the effect is positive (+M) when the substituent is an electron donating group. +M EFFECT ORDER : − –O > –NH2 > –NHCOR > –OR > –OCOR > –Ph > –CH3 > –F > –Cl > –Br > –I -M EFFECT ORDER : − –NO2 > –CN > –SO3H > –CHO > –COR > –COOCOR > –COOR > –COOH > –CONH2 > –COO The net electron flow from or to the substituent is determined also by the inductive effect. The mesomeric effect as a result of p-orbital overlap (resonance) has absolutely no effect on this inductive effect, as the inductive effect has purely to do with the electronegativity of the atoms and their topology in the molecule (which atoms are connected to which). The concepts of mesomeric effect, mesomerism and mesomer were introduced by Ingold in 1938 as an alternative to Pauling's synonymous concept of resonance.[1] "Mesomerism" in this context is often encountered in German and French literature, but in English literature the term "resonance" dominates. Contents Mesomerism in conjugated systems See also References External links Mesomerism in conjugated systems Mesomeric effect can be transmitted along any number of carbon atoms in a conjugated system. -
Aromaticity Sem- Ii
AROMATICITY SEM- II In 1931, German chemist and physicist Sir Erich Hückel proposed a theory to help determine if a planar ring molecule would have aromatic properties .This is a very popular and useful rule to identify aromaticity in monocyclic conjugated compound. According to which a planar monocyclic conjugated system having ( 4n +2) delocalised (where, n = 0, 1, 2, .....) electrons are known as aromatic compound . For example: Benzene, Naphthalene, Furan, Pyrrole etc. Criteria for Aromaticity 1) The molecule is cyclic (a ring of atoms) 2) The molecule is planar (all atoms in the molecule lie in the same plane) 3) The molecule is fully conjugated (p orbitals at every atom in the ring) 4) The molecule has 4n+2 π electrons (n=0 or any positive integer Why 4n+2π Electrons? According to Hückel's Molecular Orbital Theory, a compound is particularly stable if all of its bonding molecular orbitals are filled with paired electrons. - This is true of aromatic compounds, meaning they are quite stable. - With aromatic compounds, 2 electrons fill the lowest energy molecular orbital, and 4 electrons fill each subsequent energy level (the number of subsequent energy levels is denoted by n), leaving all bonding orbitals filled and no anti-bonding orbitals occupied. This gives a total of 4n+2π electrons. - As for example: Benzene has 6π electrons. Its first 2π electrons fill the lowest energy orbital, and it has 4π electrons remaining. These 4 fill in the orbitals of the succeeding energy level. The criteria for Antiaromaticity are as follows: 1) The molecule must be cyclic and completely conjugated 2) The molecule must be planar. -

23.5 Basicity and Acidity of Amines
23_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/8/08 1:22 PM Page 1122 1122 CHAPTER 23 • THE CHEMISTRY OF AMINES alkylamines, this resonance occurs at rather small chemical shift—typically around d 1. In aromatic amines, this resonance is at greater chemical shift, as in the second of the preceding examples. Like the OH protons of alcohols, phenols, and carboxylic acids, the NH protons of amines under most conditions undergo rapid exchange (Secs. 13.6 and 13.7D). For this reason, split- ting between the amine N H and adjacent C H groups is usually not observed. Thus, in the NMR spectrum of diethylamine,L the N H resonanceL is a singlet rather than the triplet ex- pected from splitting by the adjacent CHL2 protons. In some amine samples, the N H resonance is broadened and, like the OL H protonL of alcohols, it can be obliterated fromL the spectrum by exchange with D2O (the “DL2O shake,” p. 611). The characteristic 13C NMR absorptions of amines are those of the a-carbons—the carbons attached directly to the nitrogen. These absorptions occur in the d 30–50 chemical-shift range. As expected from the relative electronegativities of oxygen and nitrogen, these shifts are somewhat less than the a-carbon shifts of ethers. PROBLEMS 23.4 Identify the compound that has an M 1 ion at mÜz 136 in its CI mass spectrum, an IR 1 + = absorption at 3279 cm_ , and the following NMR spectrum: d 0.91 (1H, s), d 1.07 (3H, t, J 7Hz), d 2.60 (2H, q, J 7Hz), d 3.70 (2H, s), d 7.18 (5H, apparent s). -

Learning Outcomes After studying this module you shall be able to: Understand the concept of hyperconjugation. Know about the structural requirements in a molecule to show hyperconjugation. Learn about the important consequences and applications of hyperconjugation. Comprehend the concept of reverse hyperconjugation. 2. Introduction In conjugation, we have studied that the electrons move from one p orbital to other which are aligned in parallel planes. Is it possible for electron to jump from p orbital to sp3 orbital that are not parallelly aligned with one another? The answer is yes. This type of conjugation is not normal, it is extra-ordinary. Hence, the name hyper-conjugation. It is also know as no-bond resonance. Let us study more about it. 3. Hyperconjugation The normal electron releasing inductive effect (+I effect) of alkyl groups is in the following order: But it was observed by Baker and Nathan that in conjugated system, the attachment of alkyl groups reverse their capability of electron releasing. They suggested that alkyl groups are capable of releasing electrons by some process other than inductive. -
Comparative Strengths of Four Organic Bases in Benzene1 Marion Maclean Davis and Hannah B
Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards Vol. 48, No. 5, May 1952 Research Paper 2326 Comparative Strengths of Four Organic Bases in Benzene1 Marion Maclean Davis and Hannah B. Hetzer Spectropho to metric studies have shown that the reaction of the base 1,3-di-o-tolylguani- dine with the acidic indicator dye bromophthalein magenta E (tetrabromophenolphthalein ethyl ester) in benzene at 25° C, like the reactions of 1,3-diphenylguanidine and 1,2,3-tri- phenylguanidine with the same indicator, can be represented by the following two equations: B + HA ^ BH+.A- (colorless base) (yellow acid) (magenta salt) BH+.A- + B^(BHB)+A- (blue salt) For ditolylguanidine, the equilibrium constants K\ and K2 for the first and second reactions, respectively, are estimated to be 1.1 X106 and 6.4. These values are compared with values for Ki and K2 previously found for di- and triphenylguanidine and the value of Ki found for triethylamine. The values for K\, which measure the relative tendencies of the bases to form salts with the indicator acid in benzene, would be expected to parallel the ionic dissociation constants of the bases in water. However, the parallelism is not good. Diphenylguanidine and ditolylguariidine, which are presumed to be weaker bases in water than triethylamine, are much more reactive in benzene. The results demonstrate how misleading the aqueous dissociation constants may be as a gage of the relative reactivities of bases in a nonaqueous solvent such as benzene. Steric and solvation effects are discussed. 1. Introduction i optical instruments then available, it was possible to make only roughly quantitative comparisons of Hantzsch and his coworkers were the first to J acidic strengths. -

Conjugated Molecules
Conjugated Molecules - Conjugated molecules have alternating single and multiple (i.e. double or triple) bonds. Example 1: Nomenclature: 2,6-dimethylhepta-2,5-diene This molecule is not conjugated because it does not have alternating single and multiple bonds (the arrangement of the bonds starting from C2 is double, single, single and double). Between the two double bonds, there is a saturated center (C4) and two intersecting single bonds. Example 2: Nomenclature: 2,5-dimethylhexa-2,4-diene This molecule is conjugated because the arrangement of the bonds starting at C2 is double, single, and double. They are alternated. Example 3: Nomenclature: (2E)-hept-2-en-5-yne note: (2E) is a stereochemical identifier. The letter “E” indicates the arrangement of the double bond (where E usually refers to trans and Z refers to cis). The number “2” indicates the position of the double bond. This molecule is not conjugated because the single and multiple bonds are not alternated. Example 4: Nomenclature: (2Z)-hex-2-en-4-yne This molecule is conjugated because there is an alternation of multiple and single bonds (double, single, and triple starting from C2). More examples: note: the term conjugation refers to parts of the molecule. If you can find one conjugated system within the molecule, that molecule is said to be conjugated. Example: In this molecule, the double bond A is not conjugated. However, since double bond B is conjugated with double bond C, the molecule is said to be conjugated. Special Nomenclature: The Letter "S" stands for “single” and indicates that we are talking about the conjugated double bonds.
