Abstract
⺠Nucleophilicty of 32 nitrogen nucleophiles have been calculated. ⺠DFT/B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) level of theory and nucleophilicity index N introduced by Domingo et al. have been used. ⺠Nucleophilicities of the pyridine series correlate well with Mayr's nucleophilicity and inverse of electrophilicity index values. ⺠Use of nucleophilicity index Nk and philicity index Ïk- for local nucleophilicity trend and site selectivity. ⺠Both the local indices Nk and Ïk- reproduced the experimentally observed trend.
