Parameters

E Param.: -1.59

Comment E was determined from and for reactions with n-nucleophiles (not reference nucleophiles). E must not be used for predicting reactivitites toward pi-nucleophiles. The previously reported value of E = –1.87 (JACS 2003, 125, 286.) was based on only two reactions and should be revised.
