Hdb. Jenkins et al., A NOVEL COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH TO THE ESTIMATION OF STERIC PARAMETERS.2. EXTENSION TO THIAZOLES, Tetrahedron letters, 36(34), 1995, pp. 6159-6162
We have extended our new purely computational approach to the estimati
on of steric parameters, s, intended for QSAR studies, to the consider
ation of thiazoles, we have combined data for hindered 2- and 4-substi
tuted thiazoles and 2-substituted pyridines to correlate kinetic data
for the Menschutkin reaction of all three groups in a single LFER and
we have offered an interpretation of the nature of these parameters wh
ich permits this success.
