Calculation of VS,max and Its Use as a Descriptor for the Theoretical Calculation of pKa Values for Carboxylic Acids

The theoretical calculation of pKa values for Brønsted acids is a challenging task that involves sophisticated and time-consuming methods. Therefore, heuristic approaches are efficient and appealing methodologies to approximate these values. Herein, we used the maximum surface electrostat...
