Inductive effect vs Resonance effect
Inductive effect
|
Resonance effect
|
Based
on electronegativity.
|
Based
on Conjugation.
|
Electron
moves via sigma bonds.
|
Electron
moves via pi bonds or lone pairs.
|
It
involves displacement of only σ electrons and
hence occurs only in saturated compounds.
|
It
involves delocalization of π (pi) or n lone pairs of electrons and hence
occurs in unsaturated and conjugated systems.
|
During
inductive effect the electron pair is only slightly displaced towards the
more electronegative atom and hence only partial positive and negative
charges appear.
|
During
resonance effect , the electron pair I completely transferred and hence full
positive and negative charges appear.
|
Inductive
effect are transmitted over short
distance over short distances in saturated carbon chains and the
magnitude of the effect decreases rapidly as distance from the heteroatom
increases. The effect almost become
negligible beyond three carbon atoms from the heteroatom.
|
The
resonance effect are transmitted all
along the length of the conjugated system without suffering much change in
magnitude.
C3
in crotonaldehyde is almost as positive as C1.
|
Distance
short range.
|
Distance
may be long range.

Easy and nice explanation !
