Abstract

Rates of reaction of a series of sulphones, p-Me· C6H4· SO2·[CH2] n· Br (n= 3–6) with sodium ethoxide in ethanol and with potassium t-butoxide in t-butyl alchol have been measured. Three types of reaction occur, namely substitution (ethoxide reactions only), elimination, and cyclisation. Quantitative analysis of the products allows dissection of the overall rate constants into the respective rate constants for each type of reaction in each ...
