All-valence-electron CNDO/2 calculations of substituent effects upon localisation energies for electrophilic aromatic substitution
Abstract
All-valence-electron CNDO/2 calculations correctly predict the directional and reactivity effects of substituents upon electrophilic aromatic substitution, and indicate that alternation of charge-density in the ring system is a feature of both σ- and π-type molecular orbitals.
