We present an experimental electrophilicity index (ϻ) for the classification of radicals. The ϻ‐scale is based on the equilibrium constant determined for the reversible addition of a radical R . to an aromatic radicophile (HisNH 2 ). This experimental approach is in excellent agreement with the computed global electrophilicity index ω and serves to validate the latter.
