Dewar reactivity number

ID: dewar-reactivity-number

The Dewar reactivity number is a chemical concept used to assess the reactivity of a particular compound, particularly in the context of organic and inorganic chemistry. It is a numerical value assigned to the stability and reactivity of alkyl and aryl halides, aiding in the prediction of how these compounds will behave in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions and eliminations.
