The selectivities of stabilized carbanions towards electron‐deficient π‐electron systems are nearly independent of their reactivities, as shown by the rate constants of the reactions of nine carbanions 2 with four quinone methides 1 . These constant selectivity relationships may constitute the basis of a nucleophilicity scale for carbanions.
