electrophile definition
My defintion of a nucleophile= electron pair donator
so can would it be sufficient to define an electophile as an electorn pair acceptor?

Certainly. Electrophiles react by accepting electron pairs to bond with nucleophiles, so defining it as an electron pair acceptor would be accurate.
