The substituents contributions have been found to be not additive in hydrolysis of disubstituted benzhydryl bromides in 80% acetone. Whereas electronegative" substituents in 3, 3'-positions slightly diminish the reactivity, the same ones in 3, 5-positions increase the reactivity more than it was presumed. These deviations were expressed by t values and compared with literature data. On the basis of isokinetic relation the hydrolysis mechanism ...
