Lewis acid strengths


Lewis acid strengths were derived from the data of my bond-length dispersion analyses. This table aggregates Lewis acid strengths for cations bonded to O2- and N3-; expansion to other compound classes is in progress.


To retrieve data, either use the slider or expand the table and type “ctrl+f” followed by your cation of interest, e.g. “Na+”, “Be2+”. Lewis acid strengths are color-coded by anion type. Please refer to the respective publications for more information. Page not displaying properly? Download the table here.
