Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The reactivity indexes of the neutral, dipolar, cationic, and anionic forms of 3-hydroxy-quinoline were calculated by the simple MO LCAO method using dynamic and statistical approximations. The predicted (on the basis of the localization energies) charge distributions, boundary densities, free valence indexes, and orientations of electrophilic substituents for the cationic and anionic forms of 3-hydroxyquinoline are in good agreement with the experimental data. The orientations of nucleophilic and radical substituents for the four forms of 3-hydroxyquinoline are predicted. The reactivity indexes of the neutral form of 3-hydroxyquinoline were calculated by means of the Pariser-Parr-Pople method.
