Study Notes
Series with Power
- Power series indicate the strength of electron-donating or electron-withdrawing abilities of substituents in organic compounds.
- The strongest electron-withdrawing group is NF3, followed by NR3, SR2, and NH3, descending to SO3H.
- The ability of groups to withdraw electrons also includes CN being the strongest, followed by COH, COOH, and halogens in order: F, Cl, and Br.
- Iodine (I) is a weaker electron-withdrawing group, which is superior to OR (alkoxy), OH (hydroxy), and C= (fourth level of substitution) and leading to NH2.
- Different structural functionalities like cyclohexane, benzene, and unsaturation (double bonds) influence the overall electron density.
Plus One Series
- The +1 series shows substituents in order of increasing basicity, starting with -CH2, followed by -NH2 and -O.
- Carboxylate ion (COO) ranks in the series as well.
- The ranking of alcohols and amines in substitution is based on the degree of substitution: tertiary (3°R) is more stable than secondary (2°R) and primary (1°R).
Relative Electron Affinity
- The hierarchy of relative electron affinity and stability: -T (tertiary) > -D (secondary) > -H (primary).
Chemical Species
- B2O3(OH): A compound with boron, oxygen, and hydroxyl functionalities.
- Na3P2O: Sodium phosphide, a compound involving sodium and phosphorus.
- C3O2: A carbon oxide compound with three carbon atoms and two oxygen atoms.
