Inductive Effect:
→It is a permanent effect involving displacement of sigma electrons towards more electronegative species.It can be transmitted towards a chain of C-atoms and is negligible beyond third carbon atom (C₃).
→Effect caused by electron releasing groups is called +I effect.
→Effect caused by electron withdrawing groups is called -I effect.
→Order of electron withdrawing effect (-I)
N⁺R₃>NO₂>CN>SO₃H>CHO...................
→Order of electron releasing effect (+I)
(CH₃)₃C- > (CH₃)₂C- > CH₃CH₂........
→Inductive effect influences acidic nature of alcohols and carboxylic acids,basic nature of amines,stability of carbonium and carbanions.
Hope this helped you...............
Verified answer
-I Groups are electron with drawing groupsEx:-NF3,CN,OC6H5,H etc....
+I Groups are electron donating groups
Ex:-O,CH3-CH2-CH3 etc.....
