- The corrected Hammett para constant for the acetoxy substituent has been computed.
- For the calculations 5 quantum chemical descriptors have been employed.
- The revised para constant is predicted to be in the range of [â0.08, â0.02].
- Proton exchange free energies showed linear correlation with the Hammett constants.
- Water phase calculations predicted a value of â0.02 for the acetoxy group.
The Hammett para constant (Ïp) of the acetoxy group has been estimated by applying widely available quantum chemical descriptors, such as NPA charges, Wiberg bond indices, electron densities at bond critical points, as well as electrostatic potential at nuclei. The revised Ïp value is predicted to be in the range of [â0.08, â0.02]. Direct evaluation of proton transfer free energies between the substituted benzoic acids and the benzoate anion by employing the SMD solvation model resulted in a reasonable linear correlation with the Hammett constants with a prediction of Ïp = â0.02 for the OAc group.
