Abstract
The electrostatic molecular potentials arising from ab initio MO LCAO GTO SCF wavefunctions for some five membered heterocycles are used to make evident differences in reactivity of some sites (tertiary nitrogen, carbon atoms) towards electrophilic reagents. Results are in general accordance with experiment.
