Abstract

Inductive substituent constants were obtained for systems lacking the resonance effect. The application of the charge of the substituent active region concept to study the substituent effect in 1-X-substituted bicyclooctane derivatives (B3LYP/6-311++G** calculations, X = NMe2, NH2, OH, OMe, CH3, H, F, Cl, CF3, CN, CHO, COMe, CONH2, COOH, NO2, NO) has revealed inductive interactions, which are through bonds.
