Kinetics of the reactions of nine symmetrically substituted 1,3-diarylallyl cations with different nucleophiles were studied photometrically in dichloromethane, acetonitrile, and DMSO solutions. The second-order rateconstants k2 were found to follow the correlation log k2 = sN(N + E). The electrophilicity parameters E of the title cations were derived, using the known values of sN and N of the nucleophilic
