“…For para substituents, in addition to σ p , there are also the Brown-Okamoto constants (σ p+ and σ p-) (Brown and Okamoto, 1957), the use of which depends on the reaction centre of the molecule. Therefore, Hammett constants have long been used for different types of dependences where it is necessary to find a relationship between different types of substituents and a given quantity (e.g., BDE, ionisation potentials, pK a ) (Bordwell et al, 1994;Klein et al, 2009;Lukeš et al, 2017). The ortho Hammett constants proposed by Takahata are not available for all substituents (Takahata and Chong, 2005).…”
