Analysis of the Gas Phase Acidity of Substituted Benzoic Acids Using Density Functional Concepts

A theoretical study of the effect of the substituent Z on the gas phase acidity of substituted benzoic acids ZC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>COOH in terms of density functional theory descriptors (chemical potential, softness and Fukui function) is presented. The calculated gas ph...
