Which factor/s will increase the reactivity of >C=O group?
I. Presence of a group with positive inductive effect.
II. Presence of a group with negative inductive effect.
III. Presence of large alkyl group.
I. Presence of a group with positive inductive effect.
II. Presence of a group with negative inductive effect.
III. Presence of large alkyl group.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Only (ii)
Option B (Only (ii)) is correct because the presence of a group with a negative inductive effect increases the partial positive charge on the carbonyl carbon, making it more susceptible to nucleophilic attack.
