(4)

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 $π$ electron shift always facilitates the reaction.

Electromeric effect is said to be +E when the displacement of $π$ electrons is towards the attacking reagent and -E when the displacement of $π$ electrons is away from the attacking reagent. $H^{+}$ shows positive electromeric effect.

Q 3 :

The interaction between $π$ bond and lone pair of electrons present on an adjacent atom is responsible for [2024]

Ions in organic reaction are generated by heterolytic cleavage of bond. So ionic reactions with organic compounds proceed through heterolytic bond cleavage.

Homolytic bond cleavage results in formation of free radicals.

Groups of the type $- X = Y$ and $- X \equiv Y$ act as –M groups. –COOH is –M group.

Groups which have lone pair containing first atom act as +M groups. –OH, –OR and $- {NH}_{2}$ are +M groups.
