When we add electronegative atoms…
The acidity of our acidic functionality increases
Inductive Effect
Change in electron density due to electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups
- results in a permanent dipole in a bond (has both negative and positive ends)
- rely on electronegativity
- takes place through covalent bonds
Electron-Withdrawing Group
Group/Atom that draws electrons toward itself
Electron-Donating Group
Group/Atom that gives electrons to other atoms through resonance/inductive effects
Anilines
And compare it to amine
Pyridine
And compare to imine
Describe Pyrrole
Compare to pyridine
Active Methylene
And describe
Carbon in the alpha position relative to two carbonyl groups
- protons are more acidic because charge can be localized to two different oxygens
Tautomerization
Rearrangement
Keto-Enol Tautomerism
Equilibrium between a keto and enol form
Imine-Enamine Tautomerism
Equilibrium between an imine and enamine form
Zwitterion
Has both a negative and positive formal charge
