Abstract

Abstract The substituted benzyl tosylates p-phenyl, p-(π-phenylchromium tricarbonyl), p-(p′- nitrophenyl), m-phenyl, m-(π-phenylchromium tricarbonyl) and m-(p′-nitrophenyl) have been prepared and their solvolysis rates in buffered and/or unbuffered acetic acid determined. At 69.0 C their reactivities relative to benzyl tosylate (1.00) are: 10.8, 7.14, 0.742, 0.571, 0.134 and 0.173, respectively. Conjugative substituent parameters are ...
