Abstract

Abstract: A comparative study has been made of the rates of hydrolysis of the 2, 4-and 2, 6- dichloro-and 2, 4-and 2, 6-dicarbomethoxy derivatives of benzyl bromide, the 1-(2, 4-and 2, 6-dichlorophenyl) ethyl bromides, and the 1-(2, 4-and 2, 6-dicarbornethoxyphenyl) ethyl bromides in 80 vol aqueous dioxane. The four disubstituted benzyl bromides react at comparable rates. At 70.7'the 2, 4-dichloro derivative of 1-phenylethyl bromide is about ...
