Nucleophilicity of the boron atom in compounds R-B, (R = F, Cl, Br, I, CN, NC, CH3, SiH3, CF3, H): a new look at the inductive effects of the group R

Nucleophilicities NR-B of molecules R-B (R = F, Cl, Br, I, CN, NC, CH3, SiH3, CF3, H) are determined from the equilibrium dissociation energies De of 70 hydrogen-bonded complexes R-B⋯HX (X = F, Cl, Br, I, HCN. HCCH, HCP). The change in NR-B relative to NH-B of H-B allows a quantitative measure of th...
