Abstract

Conclusions The following generalizations may be deduced from the proposed model:(1) Both the stabilizing two-electron and destabilizing four-electron minimum-energy trajectory angles, Oct and 0, respectively, are independent of the magnitude of the orbital coefficient associated with the nucleophile.(2) Or is independent of both the energy level of the nucleophile HOMO and the energy levels of the occuppied molecular orbitals of the a- ...
