Since pKW = pH + pOH = 14
pKb = 14 - pKa
Conclusion: stronger bases have lower pKb values,
and their conjugate acids are weaker
acids (higher pKa values).

WR = work required to form encounter complex from

respectively, within the encounter complex
G‡ = overall free energy of activation
Gp‡ = free energy of activation for proton transfer within
the encounter complex
Go = overall equilibrium free energy of reaction
Gpo = equilibrium free energy of reaction within the

Since
ki = Gi Ka-bi:
k obs 
G123 K ba 2 b1 b3
1  G 23 K ba 2 b3
and
log kobs = (b3+b1-b2) pKa + C123 – log(1 + G23Kab2-b3)
or
log kobs = (b3+b1-b2) pKa + C123 – log(1 + G2310(b3-b2)pKa)
The equation is nonlinear because of the last term.

Conclusion: A nonlinear BrØnsted plot requires a
mechanism with at least one intermediate.
Caveat: The converse, that a linear BrØnsted plot requires
a concerted mechanism, is not true.

C. Hard and Soft Acids and Bases
Various observations indicate that the correlation of nucleophilicity with
basicity, as measured by conjugate acid pKa values, is not universal:
1. 1. BrØnsted analysis degrades when nucleophiles of different structural classes
2.
are used.
2. HI is a very strong acid (pKa = -9) whose conjugate base is nonetheless a
strong nucleophile:

hard-soft interactions.

H. α-Effect Nucleophiles

●
Hydrazines, hydroxylamines, peroxide anions

●
Unusually strong nucleophiles in relation to their weak
basicity

●
Lone-pair repulsions raise EHOMO.
