https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity%E2%80%93selectivity%20principle | In chemistry the reactivity–selectivity principle or RSP states that a more reactive chemical compound or reactive intermediate is less selective in chemical reactions. In this context selectivity represents the ratio of reaction rates.
This principle was generally accepted until the 1970s when too many exceptions sta... |
