If the dipole moment of Toluene and Nitro-benzene are 0.43 D and 3.93 D respectively, then what is the expected dipole moment of p-Nitrotoluene?

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Methyl group has $+ I$ effect and $- N O_{2}$ group has $- I$ effect $.$ Therefore, in p-nitro toluene the dipole moments of $- C H_{3}$ and $- N O_{2}$ groups act in the same direction. So, the resultant dipole moment is additive.

i.e., 3.93 + 0.43 = 4.36 debye
