As per your syllabus, the INDUCTIVE EFFECT in a chain of σ-bonds is best described as which?
APermanent σ-bond polarisation by EN atom
BResonance across π-bonds in system
CTemporary π-electron shift on demand
DHyperconjugation through C-H bonds
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Permanent σ-bond polarisation by EN atom
Your syllabus: inductive = permanent polarisation of σ-bonds by an electronegative substituent.
Decreases with distance.
