Title: Correlation between Alkyl Cation Affinities and Proton Affinities—A Means to Rationalise Alkyl Group Substituent Effects
Abstract:Using literature thermochemical data it is demonstrated that the known linear relationship between proton affinities and methyl cation affinities can be extended to other alkyl groups (ethyl, i-propyl...Using literature thermochemical data it is demonstrated that the known linear relationship between proton affinities and methyl cation affinities can be extended to other alkyl groups (ethyl, i-propyl, t-butyl). It is suggested that the slopes of the straight lines can be used to define a new set of alkyl substituent constants.Read More
