The mechanism of aromatic nitration is critically reviewed with particular emphasis on the paradox of the high positional selectivity of substitution in spite of low substrate selectivity. Early quantum chemical computations in the gas phase have suggested that the retention of positional selectivity at encounter-limited rates could be ascribed to the formation of a radical pair via an electron transfer step occurring before the formation of the Wheland intermediate, but calculations which account for the effects of solvent polarization and the presence of counterion do not support that point of view. Here we report a brief survey of the available experimental and theoretical data, adding a few more computations for better clarifying the role of electron transfer for regioselectivity.

The dissociative attachment (DA) process appears in a surprisingly diverse number of research disciplines. Although gas phase studies have been carried out for approximately 30 years, there are no calculations of the cross sections for this process in molecules larger than diatomics. In this presentation, we review briefly the role of DA in several contexts generally unfamiliar to workers in atomic and molecular physics, and touch on some of the theoretical difficulties. We continue with a discussion of our work, both experimental and theoretical, on compounds containing a single halogen atom and conclude with results showing how the DA process can be used to study intramolecular electron transfer.
