Abstract

Anilines and their derivatives are used in industrial production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, plastics, and synthetic antioxidants. Abstraction of electron and formation of a cation radical represent a significant step in the reactivity of this group of substances. The aim of this study was to theoretically investigate the effect of a substituent on the oxidative electrochemical potential of 64 species of aniline derivatives. Quantum-chemical calculations were performed using the composite G4 method. The obtained linear dependences for reaction Gibbs free energies were correlated with the Hammett constants and available experimental values.
