The compensation effect refers to the behavior of a series of closely related chemical reactions (e.g., reactants in different solvents or reactants differing only in a single substituent), which exhibit a linear relationship between one of the following kinetic or thermodynamic parameters for describing the reactions: (i) between the logarithm of the pre-exponential factors (or prefactors) and the activation energies lnAi = α + Ea,i/Rβ ΔH‡i = α + βΔS‡i ΔHi = α + βΔSi.
