1. Inductive effect 5 – 8
2. Mesomeric effect 9 – 15
3. Field effect 16 – 18
4. Steric effect 19 – 19
Organic compounds: - unreactive carbon chain
- functional groups (e.g. heteroatoms, multiple bonds, aromatic rings, generally substituents of carbon skeleton)
Effects of substituents:
- electronic: 1. inductive effect 2. mezomeric effect 3. field effect
- steric

1. Inductive effect:
Bond-polarization by difference in electronegativity.
Electronegativity is dependent on:
a) Position in the periodic table
pl. C < N < O < F pl. F > Cl > Br > I
H3C > Cl δ+ δ-

d) Two directions:
negative (-I):
toward the more electronegative substituent;
e.g. -OH, -X, -NH2, -COOH, etc;
positive (+I):
toward carbonatom
e.g. alkyl group, metals, carboxilate group

2. Mesomeric effect (conj., resonance):
By a group attached to an unsaturated system and possessing an unshaired pair of electrons, resulting in a new electron distribution.
More than one Lewis structures. Positive or negative
Conditions required: - coplanarity of interacting groups
- parallel arrangement of overlapping orbitals
