Chapter 2.1, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction

a) H3C-Cl

Interpretation:

Using δ+- convention, the direction of expected polarity for C-Cl bond in H3C-Cl is to be indicated.

Concept introduction:

Normally a crossed arrow is used to indicate the direction of the bond polarity. By convention electrons are displaced in the direction of the arrow. The tail of the arrow which looks like a plus sign is electron-poor (δ+) and the head of the arrow is electron rich (δ-).

To indicate:

Using δ+/ δ- convention, the direction of expected polarity for C-Cl bond in H3C-Cl.

Interpretation Introduction

b) H3C-NH2

Interpretation:

Using δ+- convention, the direction of expected polarity for C-N bond in H3C-NH2 is to be indicated.

Concept introduction:

Normally a crossed arrow is used to indicate the direction of the bond polarity. By convention electrons are displaced in the direction of the arrow. The tail of the arrow which looks like a plus sign is electron-poor (δ+) and the head of the arrow is electron rich (δ-).

To indicate:

Using δ+- convention, the direction of expected polarity for C-N bond in H3C-NH2.

Interpretation Introduction

c) H2N-H

Interpretation:

Using δ+- convention, the direction of expected polarity for N-H bond in H2N-H is to be indicated.

Concept introduction:

Normally a crossed arrow is used to indicate the direction of the bond polarity. By convention electrons are displaced in the direction of the arrow. The tail of the arrow which looks like a plus sign is electron-poor (δ+) and the head of the arrow is electron rich (δ-).

To indicate:

Using δ+/ δ- convention, the direction of expected polarity for N-H bond in H2N-H.

Interpretation Introduction
