The paper deals with chemometric analysis of the inductive effect. The notion of inductive effect is discussed, and unambiguous definitions are given for the notions of triad: reaction centre-basic skeleton-substituent, and the therewith connected definitions of inductive effect. For a quantitative description of inductive effect 7 types of chemical models were selected including noncyclic compounds, cyclic, and bicyclic compounds, derivatives of quinuclidine, 3-substituted benzoic acids, sulfonamides and pyridines. Altogether 139 sets of experimental data from literature have been used including altogether 1 294 points (9.3 points per set, 5 points at least) reflecting substituent effects of 34 substituents. It has been found that for a standard model the dissociation of substituted bicycloalkanecarboxylic acids only is satisfactory, all the other models reflecting also the mesomeric effects to variable extent (up to 10%). A distinctly different substitution behaviour was observed with 19F and 13C NMR chemical shifts of 4-substituted 1-fluoro- or 1-methylbicyclo[2.2.2]octanes. The earlier suggested model of substituent effects based on different way of transmission of substituent effects (3 classes) has been used for separating the inductive and mesomeric effects: it is mathematically presented as a set of straight lines with the intersection point at the so-called isoeffect substituent constant. Using the modified method of conjugated deviations a chemometric scale has been created for the inductive effect which agrees very well with the conventional scales given in literature; the only differences were observed for F and CH=O substituents (which are overestimated and underestimated, respectively, in literature). In the context given the inductive effect appears as a fundamental quantity forming a basis for quantitative description of other effects transferred by electrons.

Two series of model compounds were devised to follow the attenuation of substituent effects with an interposed methylene group: short-chain aliphatic compounds 1 and derivatives of bicyclo[2.2.2]octane 5. In all compounds, chlorine atom acts as substituent and charged oxygen atom as the functional group; the interaction of both is measured by the reaction energy of the isodesmic reaction calculated at the B3LYP/AUG-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) and/or B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) levels. Attenuation of the substituent inductive effect with the distance is less steep than observed previously in solution. It depends also markedly on the conformation but cannot be reproduced, not even approximately, by the electrostatic formula. Only for simple regular conformations, it can be described approximately by an exponential function with the transmission factor for one methylene group equal to 0.74. The behavior of isolated molecules differs in this case distinctly from the reactivity in solution. Nevertheless, the significance of the two formulas, electrostatic and exponential, is similar in the isolated molecules and in solution. These formulas represent only two different, rather crude mathematical approximations and cannot be given any physical meaning.

Hydrolysis Of

The rate constants of the hydrolysis of p-substituted benzonitriles with sulfuric acid solutions (18.2 M to 10 M) have been determined spectrophotometrically at (25.1±0.1) °C. It was found that the catalytic activity of sulfuric acid was strongly inhibited by water. The logarithms of the observed rate constants were correlated with different substituent inductive (localized) and resonance (delocalized) constants. The results of the correlation studies indicated that the rate-determining step of the hydrolysis of benzonitriles in 18.2 M sulfuric acid was the addition of a nucleophile, and the hydrolysis was clearly enhanced by the electron-withdrawing inductive effect, while the rate-determining step of the hydrolysis of p-substituted benzonitriles in 10.0 M sulfuric acid was most probably the protonation of benzonitriles, and the rate constants increased by both electron-donating resonance and inductive effects. A mixture of the two mechanisms most probably occurred in 15.3 to 17.0 M sulfuric acid. HSO4 − rather thanwater most probably acted as nucleophile in the hydrolysis of benzonitriles especially at high concentrations of sulfuric acid solutions.

Polarizability Effect

The hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) strength of 31 tetrahedral sulfur bases (thioethers, thiols, disulfides) has been measured by IR spectrometry from: (i) their 1:1 complexation constants with 4-fluorophenol in CCl4 at 25 °C (the pKHB scale); (ii) their HB enthalpies; and (iii) the frequency shifts, Δν(OH), of the ν(OH) band of 4-fluorophenol hydrogen bonded to sulfur. The comparison of the pKHB, ΔH°, and Δν(OH) scales points to their distinctive features. The HBA strength depends on: (i) the nature of the atomic site: oxygen bases are always stronger than sulfur bases, in agreement with the hard and soft acids and bases principle; (ii) the functionality of this atom (for sulfur bases: phosphine sulfur > thioamide > thioketone > thioether > thiol > isothiocyanate ~ disulfide); and (iii) the substituent effects on the function. The main substituent effects are: (i) the polarizability effect of alkyl groups; (ii) the field-inductive effect; (iii) the resonance effect; and (iv) the cyclization effect, which changes the percentage of the s character of sulfur lone pairs. In addition to the attachment to the sulfur atom, IR spectra show the attachment of 4-fluorophenol to the chlorine of MeSCH2Cl and MeSCH2CH2Cl, and the interaction to the π cloud of PhSMe, Ph2S, PhCH2SMe, and EtSCH=CH2. Key words: hydrogen bond, thioethers, thiols, disulfides, pKHB scale.

Correct Comparison

Two correlation equations for the intensity of the 1Lb band in benzene derivatives were tested: the classic theory of Platt, Eq. (1), and the linear modification suggested by Ballester, Eq. (2). A systematic and statistically correct comparison of mono- and disubstituted derivatives revealed that Eq. (1) holds for substituents which are not conjugated or only slightly conjugated with the benzene ring, both in the ground and in the excited state (alkyls, Cl, Br, I, CH2X, CHal3). Some symmetrical properties of the substituents might be also of importance but their spectral properties (the spectroscopic moment itself, or the spectral shift) are not decisive. The conjugated substituents deviate from Eq. (1) in such a sense that the cumulative substituent effect is less than predicted; a part of the deviation may be approximately described by Eq. (2) but an exact range of validity cannot be determined. The spectroscopic moments depend mainly on the mesomeric effect of the substituent and quite little on its inductive effect; they cannot, however, be expressed only by a combination of these two effects as determined from the ground state properties. This was demonstrated on the series of compounds C6H5CH2X since the correlation with σI constants revealed only a general trend.

AbstractNumerous studies on nitro group properties are associated with its high electron-withdrawing ability, by means of both resonance and inductive effect. The substituent effect of the nitro group may be well described using either traditional substituent constants or characteristics based on quantum chemistry, i.e., cSAR, SESE, and pEDA/sEDA models. Interestingly, the cSAR descriptor allows to describe the electron-attracting properties of the nitro group regardless of the position and the type of system. Analysis of classical and reverse substituent effects of the nitro group in various systems indicates strong pi-electron interactions with electron-donating substituents due to the resonance effect. This significantly affects the pi-electron delocalization of the aromatic ring decreasing the aromatic character, evidenced clearly by HOMA values. Use of the pEDA/sEDA model allows to measure the population of electrons transferred from the ring to the nitro group.
