44. The Fukui functions can also be evaluated by using the finite difference approximation in terms of the cationic, neutral and anionic electronic densities. However, under this approximation, the Fukui functions of these NBOs yielded, negative values (data not reported, here), avoiding an appropriate rationalization of the regioselectivity of selected, systems. These negative values can be traced, back to the larger electronic relaxation effects expected, in these systems.
