Chapter 22.4, Problem 7P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Considering the resonance structure, the reason that the given compounds are weaker base than aniline corresponding to the effect of the substituent is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

>

The major factors that contribute to the basic strength are s character, inductive effect and polarity.

>

The high percentage of s character decreases the basicity, Positive inductive effect increases the basic strength of the compounds, whilenegative inductive effect decreases the basic strength of the compounds.

>

An acidic substance in a reaction donates a proton, while a base in a reaction accepts a proton.

>

The elimination of a proton leads to the formation of a conjugate base. If the base accepts a proton the species formed is known as conjugate acid.
