51. +, the electrostatic contribution relative to the charge-transfer one to stabilization of a transition state should be large. However, the primary purpose of the analysis here is to clarify the origin of the latter that is also an important driving force of a reaction between reactant and reagent. We believe that the conclusion drawn by taking the simple model reflects the fundamental aspect of orbital interactions in aromatic systems, to which many kinds of reagents have been shown to attack. For study of substituent effects of aromatic compounds in terms of molecular electrostatic potentials, see for example ref 14 and. Gadre, S. R.; Suresh, C. H. J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 2625. For discussions from the HSAB viewpoint, see. for example, refs 12 and 17.
