Electromeric effect (E) is a temporary effect that involves the complete transfer of a shared pair of electrons to one or the other atom joined by a multiple bond (double or triple).
It occurs only in the presence of an attacking reagent and direction of electron shift always facilitates the reaction.
Electromeric effect is said to be +E when the displacement of electrons is towards the attacking reagent and -E when the displacement of electrons is away from the attacking reagent. shows positive electromeric effect.
