Abstract
The effective total charges on the nitro groups of m- and p-substituted nitrobenzenes were calculated ab initio by the RHF/3-21G method. The calculated charges were correlated with the Hammett constants of substituents in the aromatic ring. The correlation equations obtained can be used for predicting and evaluating the reactivity of aromatic nitro compounds.
