NEET Solved Paper 2018 Question 20

Question: Which of the following is correct with respect to - I effect of the substituents? (R = alkyl) [NEET - 2018]

Options:

A) $ \text{-N}{H_2}\text{-OR-F} $

B) $ \text{-N}{R_2}\text{-OR-F} $

C) $ \text{-N}{H_2}\text{-OR-F} $

D) $ \text{-N}{R_2}\text{-OR-F} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

    • I effect increases on increasing electronegativity of atom. So, correct order of -I effect is $ \text{–N}{H_2}\text{–OR–F} $ . Most appropriate Sol. is option [c], However option [b] may also be correct Sol.
