  2. Inductive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_effect

    The effect of the sigma electron displacement towards the more electronegative atom by which one end becomes positively charged and the other end negatively charged is known as the inductive effect. The - I effect is a permanent effect & generally represented by an arrow on the bond.

  3. Electron-withdrawing group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-withdrawing_group

    Electron-withdrawing groups exert an "inductive" or "electron-pulling" effect on covalent bonds. The strength of the electron-withdrawing group is inversely proportional to the pKa of the carboxylic acid. [2] The inductive effect is cumulative: trichloroacetic acid is 1000x stronger than chloroacetic acid.

  4. Nitrogen dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_dioxide

    The lone electron in NO 2 also means that this compound is a free radical, so the formula for nitrogen dioxide is often written as • NO 2. The reddish-brown color is a consequence of preferential absorption of light in the blue region of the spectrum (400–500 nm), although the absorption extends throughout the visible (at shorter ...

  5. Reaction mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_mechanism

    This form suggests that the rate-determining step is a reaction between two molecules of NO 2. A possible mechanism for the overall reaction that explains the rate law is: 2 NO 2 → NO 3 + NO (slow) NO 3 + CO → NO 2 + CO 2 (fast) Each step is called an elementary step, and each has its own rate law and molecularity. The elementary steps ...

  6. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    This effect is depicted in scheme 3, where, in a para substituted arene 1a, one resonance structure 1b is a quinoid with positive charge on the X substituent, releasing electrons and thus destabilizing the Y substituent. This destabilizing effect is not possible when X has a meta orientation. Scheme 3. Hammett Inductive Mesomeric Effects

  8. Taft equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taft_equation

    where ⁡ is the ratio of the rate of the substituted reaction compared to the reference reaction, ρ* is the sensitivity factor for the reaction to polar effects, σ* is the polar substituent constant that describes the field and inductive effects of the substituent, δ is the sensitivity factor for the reaction to steric effects, and E s is ...
