Abstract

Abstract A new set of σ o values was determined for all positions of pyridyl and quinolyl groups, reliably excluding steric effect by perihydrogen, on the basis of the rates of the alkaline hydrolysis of substituted 2-methylbenzoates and pyridylmethyl and quinolylmethyl 2- methylbenzoates in 70% aq acetone.
