Electron transfer induced dissociation of chloro-cyano-benzene radical anion: driving chemical reactions via charge restraints

We introduce a new quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics based method to drive electron transfer reactions. Our approach uses the dynamically restrained electrostatic potential derived charges of the quantum atoms as a reaction coordinate, and allows an estn. o ...

The reactivity of 2-fluoro- and 2-chloropyridines toward sodium ethoxide: Factors governing the rates of nucleophilic (het)aromatic substitutions

Thierry Rausis

The relative displacement rates of the halide substituent from 2-fluoro- and 2-chloropyridines by EtONa in EtOH at +25 Deg were assessed by competition kinetics. The 2-fluoropyridine reacts 320 times faster than the chloro analog. A CF3 group increases the ...
