Rationale for
the Special Issue “Grunwald-Winstein Equations – 60 Years & Counting”
| log(k/k0) = mY log(k/k0) = lN +mY | Dear
Colleague, IJMS has agreed to a special issue commemorating the 60th anniversary of the original Grunwald-Winstein Equation. In recent years several papers have highlighted its usefulness in Physical Organic Chemistry, especially appreciating its contribution in providing information utilized in the determination of mechanisms of reaction of useful organic compounds. I now strongly urge you to take advantage of this forum provided by IJMS, to submit your research articles or review commentaries on LFER’s, and studies on solvent interactions, for possible publication in this journal during 2008. Thank you, Malcolm J. D’Souza Guest Editor |
