Popis: Methyl substitution in benzo[a]pyrene 1 leads to isomeric derivatives with distinctly different carcinogenic potencies. Using the elements of “Bay‐Region”; carbonium ions and Seybold‐Smith reactivity theory, these differences in carcinogenic activity can be explained using HMO reactivity indices. Theoretical reaction indices will also be presented for the lesser studied benzo [e]pyrene system 2.
