Abstract: | The relationship between the ionization potential and the parameters molecular electronegativity and molecular polarizability for haloalkanes, amines, alcohols, and ethers was investigated. There is no good linear correlation between the ionization potential Ip and molecular electronegativity chi(eq) alone for these compounds. Ip can be modeled well with three parameters: chi(eq), polarizability effect index (PEI) of an alkyl group, and atomic polarizability (P). Further, a single expression for predicting the Ip values of aldehydes, esters, nitriles, and carboxylic acids was developed: Ip(Rz)(eV) = Ip(MeZ) + 1.4544delta chi(eq) - 1.6435delta sigmaPEI(Ri). Here Ip(MeZ) is the experimental ionization potential of monosubstituted methane MeZ. Delta chi(eq) and delta sigmaPEI(Ri) are the difference in the molecular electronegativity and the difference in the polarizability effect index of alkyl groups attached to the functional group Z between molecules MeZ and RZ, respectively. |
