What is back bonding?

Back bonding is a process that creates a pi bond

4
New cards

What is a localised lone pair in resonance?

Lone pair electrons that do not take part in resonance

5
New cards

What is a un-localised lone pair in resonance?

Lone pair electrons that do take part in resonance

6
New cards

Which is the position on which M effect doesent work on in a cyclo compound?

Meta position on the cyclo compound

7
New cards

What is an activating and deactivating group?

Activating group → A group that causes electron density to increase in a benzene ring
Deactivating group → A group that causes electron density to decrease in a benzene ring

8
New cards

What type of directors are +M and -M groups?

+M → ortho and par directory

-M → Meta directory

What is the definition of hyperconjugation?

It involves the delocalisation of sigma electrons in C—H (C sp3—H s) of an alkyl group directly attached to an atom of an unsaturated system (alkenes, alkynes) or an atom of an unshared p orbital

10
New cards

Why do CO and CN not show hyperconjugation?

It is because they have a very high energy pi antibonding orbital present in them

11
New cards

What are all the rules to check the aromaticity of compounds?

n → Number of electrons in a pi bond

If it’s in multiples of 4, then it isn’t aromatic

<p>n → Number of electrons in a pi bond</p><p>If it’s in multiples of 4, then it isn’t aromatic</p>

New cards

What are the 2 compounds that show aromaticity due to them not being planar but still technically satisfy all the 3 conditinos for a compound to be aromatic?
