Summary

1.
It was shown that there is a relation between the thermodynamic (energy) and kinetic factors of chemical reactions, on the one hand, and the electron charges of bonds in the reactant molecules, on the other. Three theses were formulated, and it was shown that from these theses we can derive rules, found earlier by empirical methods, for the direction of organic reactions and also regularities observed in the metallation of hydrocarbons and in certain atomic and free-radical exchange. reactions.It was shown that there is a relation between activation energies and electron charges of bonds.

2.
A new qualitative interpretation of the mechanism of the mutual effects of atoms was illustrated by the examples of acetic and chloroacetic acids.In the course of these considerations it was suggested that the directional variation of the electronegativity of an atom is the cause of the trans effect.
