The Grand Canonical General-Purpose Reactivity Indicator: A Conceptual DFT Approach to Predict Molecular Reactivity and Experimental Electrophilicity and Nucleophilicity Scales
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide The Grand Canonical General-Purpose Reactivity Indicator (GC-GPRI) is introduced as a tool for predicting reactivity and for discerning the relative electrophilicity and nucleophilicity of electrophiles and nucleophiles, respectively. The GC-GPRI is derived within the zero-temperature grand canonical ensemble conceptual density-functional theory (CDFT) framework using a perturbative approach. In this model, the electrophile–nucleophile interaction energy is modeled by perturbations in the chemical and external potentials of the isolated species. The GC-GPRI accurately identifies the most reactive hard and soft atoms in complex molecules with multiple reactive sites. This model also reproduces experimental electrophilicity and nucleophilicity scales for 21 electrophiles and 20 nucleophiles, with R 2 correlations of 0.98 and 0.94, respectively.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
