####44. Which of the following is correct with respect to $-I$ effect of the substituents? $(R=$ alkyl $)$
(a) $-NH_2<-$ OR $<-$ F
[2018]
(b) $-NR_2<-$ OR $<-$ F
(c) $-NR_2>-OR>-F$
(d) $-NH_2>-OR>-F$
Show Answer
Solution:
- (a) $-I$ effect increases on increasing electronegativity of atom. So, correct order of $-I$ effect is $-NH_2<-OR<-F$.
