The orbital interaction that would be necessary to generate each sp hybrid orbital from pure AOs is to be drawn by considering the given pair of sp hybrid orbitals. Concept introduction: Any sp-hybridized atom has two sp hybrid orbitals and two unhybridized p orbitals. The two sp hybrid orbitals are aligned along the same axis and point in opposite directions. Mixing of the lobe with the same phase leads to constructive interference, thus increasing the size of the lobe. The other lobe of p orbital having an opposite phase as s orbital leads to destructive interference on that side. The size of the lobe on this side is smaller than the other lobe. The larger lobe shows the overlapping of s and p orbitals with the same phase. The smaller lobe is often omitted entirely for simplicity.

Basics in Organic Reactions Mechanisms

In organic chemistry, the mechanism of an organic reaction is defined as a complete step-by-step explanation of how a reaction of organic compounds happens. A completely detailed mechanism would relate the first structure of the reactants with the last s…

Heterolytic Bond Breaking

Heterolytic bond breaking is also known as heterolysis or heterolytic fission or ionic fission. It is defined as breaking of a covalent bond between two different atoms in which one atom gains both of the shared pair of electrons. The atom that gains bo…

Polar Aprotic Solvent

Solvents that are chemically polar in nature and are not capable of hydrogen bonding (implying that a hydrogen atom directly linked with an electronegative atom is not found) are referred to as polar aprotic solvents. Some commonly used polar aprotic sol…

Oxygen Nucleophiles

Oxygen being an electron rich species with a lone pair electron, can act as a good nucleophile. Typically, oxygen nucleophiles can be found in these compounds- water, hydroxides and alcohols.

Carbon Nucleophiles

We are aware that carbon belongs to group IV and hence does not possess any lone pair of electrons. Implying that neutral carbon is not a nucleophile then how is carbon going to be nucleophilic? The answer to this is that when a carbon atom is attached t…

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The orbital interaction that would be necessary to generate each sp hybrid orbital from pure AOs is to be drawn by considering the given pair of sp hybrid orbitals.

Concept introduction:

Any sp-hybridized atom has two sp hybrid orbitals and two unhybridized p orbitals. The two sp hybrid orbitals are aligned along the same axis and point in opposite directions. Mixing of the lobe with the same phase leads to constructive interference, thus increasing the size of the lobe. The other lobe of p orbital having an opposite phase as s orbital leads to destructive interference on that side. The size of the lobe on this side is smaller than the other lobe. The larger lobe shows the overlapping of s and p orbitals with the same phase. The smaller lobe is often omitted entirely for simplicity.
