Abstract
The ionization potentials of alkyl and hydrogen halides are found to be excellent linear fractions of the polar and inductive substituent constants, indicating that the effect of alkyl substituents on the electron density of the halogen atoms is inductive. The slopes of the four regression lines vary widely in the order RF ≫ RCl > RBr > RI, which shows that the susceptibility of the halogen atoms to inductive effects varies in the same order. Values of σI and σ* for alkyl groups not previously available are estimated.
