Abstract: | Experimental gas-phase acidities are reported for a series of 3-substituted (X) bicyclo [1.1.1]pent-1-yl carboxylic acids (1, Y = COOH). A comparison with available calculated data (MP2/6-311++G**// B3LYP/6-311+G**) reveals good agreement. The relative substituent effects are shown to be adequately described by a much lower level of theory (B3LYP/6-31+G*). Various correlations are presented which clearly point to polar field effects as being the origin of the relative acidities. |
