The data obtained support that an increase in n → π* energy (En→π*) correlates to a decrease in the hydrolysisrate constant (kobs). Further, the observed variation in these rates demonstrates that AHL hydrolysis can be modified by manipulating steric and electronic effects that alter the electrophilicity of the lactone carbonyl. These results help to elucidate nature’s choice of AHLs as agents of density-dependent
