Electron-withdrawing Groups

Electron-Withdrawing Groups is a functional group or substituent that, by virtue of its electronegativity or resonance effects, reduces electron density in a molecular system through inductive or mesomeric withdrawal, thereby influencing the reactivity, stability, and bioisosteric properties of adjacent atoms or regions within a molecule.
