  2. Inductive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_effect

    In Organic chemistry, the inductive effect in a molecule is a local change in the electron density due to electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups elsewhere in the molecule, resulting in a permanent dipole in a bond. [1] It is present in a σ (sigma) bond, unlike the electromeric effect which is present in a π (pi) bond.

  3. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    The inductive effect is the transmission of charge through covalent bonds and Bent's rule provides a mechanism for such results via differences in hybridisation. In the table below, [ 26 ] as the groups bonded to the central carbon become more electronegative, the central carbon becomes more electron-withdrawing as measured by the polar ...

  4. 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.

  5. Baker–Nathan effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker–Nathan_effect

    In organic chemistry, the Baker–Nathan effect is observed with reaction rates for certain chemical reactions with certain substrates where the order in reactivity cannot be explained solely by an inductive effect of substituents. [1] This effect was described in 1935 by John W. Baker and W. S. Nathan.

  6. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    In organic chemistry, a cross-coupling reaction is a reaction where two different fragments are joined. Cross-couplings are a subset of the more general coupling reactions. Often cross-coupling reactions require metal catalyst

  7. Taft equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taft_equation

    This equation is combined with the equation for σ* to give the full Taft equation. From comparing the E s values for methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and tert-butyl, it is seen that the value increases with increasing steric bulk. However, because context will have an effect on steric interactions [7] some E s values

    Inductive reasoning aptitude; Collective Induction, in psychology; Hypnotic induction, causing hypnosis "Induction", a song by Broken Spindles from Fulfilled/complete "Induction" (short story), a short story by Greg Egan

  9. Swain–Lupton equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swain–Lupton_equation

    If this was not done, the equation would give exceedingly more weight to the unsubstituted compounds that one is trying to make a comparison to using this equation. [1] A linear least-squares analysis is used to determine the coefficients/constants a, b, and i (Swain and Lupton used a procedure called DOVE: Dual Obligate Vector Evaluation). [2]
