What is Resonance Effect? Give the types of Resonance Effect.

Answer»

The polarity produced in the molecule by the interaction of two pi bonds or between a pi bond and lone pair of electron present on an adjacent atom.

There are two types of resonance effect: 

(1) Positive resonance effect: In this effect the transfer of electrons is away from an atom or substituent group attached to the conjugated system. The atoms or groups which shows +R effect are halogens,-OH , -OR,- NH2 

(2) Negative resonance effect: In this effect the transfer of electrons is towards the atom or substituent group attached to the conjugated system. The atoms or groups which shows -R effect are –COOH , -CHO , -CN
