Explain inductive effect with suitable example

Answer»

Solution :Inductive effect:
(i) It is defined as the charge in the polarization of a covalent bond DUE to the presence ofadjacent bonded atoms or groups in the molecule . It is denoted as 1 effect
(ii) Atoms or GROUP which LOSE electrons towards a corbon atom are said to have a carbon atom are said to have a + 1 effect
Example : ` CH_(3) - (CH_(3))_(2) CH_(3) (CH_(3))_(2)C `- etc.
(iii) For examples consider ethane and ethyl chloride . The C-C bond in ethane is non-polar while the C-C bond in ethyl chloride is polar . Weknow that chloride is more electronegative than carbon and hence it attracts the shared pair of electrons between C-C is ethyl chloride towards itself
`underset(2) overset(sigma)Coverset(sigma^(+))H_(3) - underset(1)overset(sigma)(C)H_(2)- overset(sigma^(-))Cl `
