A series of New N-[1-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-X-substituted benzyl]-Y-substituted aniline derivaties (S) have been synthesized. And the rate of hydrolysis was investigated kinetically in 25% (v/v) aqueous methanol at 25$^{\circ}C$. On the basis of rate equations, solvent effect $m {\ll} 1,\; n \leq 3\; and\; m {\ll} l$), salt effect, general base catalysis, substituent effect (${\rho}_{xy}$ > > 0), and hydrolysis products analysis, it may be concluded that the hydrolysis of N-[1-(benzotriazol-1-yl)benzyl]aniline proceeds the "A-$S_N2$" mechanism below pH 12.0, while above pH 13.0, the hydrolysis proceeds through a typical "$S_N2$" mechanism.

Bimolecular substitution of $Cl^-$ at carbonyl carbon of $CH_3COCl$ has been investigated MO theoretically by calculating energy profiles (EHT) and electronic distribution (CNDO/2) for frontside and backside attacks at several distances of approach. Considerations of other experimental and MO data together with these calculations support the $S_N2-$retention mechanism for the substitution at carbonyl carbon.

The rate constants of solvolysis of phenyl N-phenyl phosphoramidochloridate (PhNHPO(Cl)OPh, Target Compound-TC1) have been determined by a conductivity method. The solvolysis rate constants of TC1 are well correlated with the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, using the $N_T$ solvent nucleophilicity scale and YCl solvent ionizing scale, and sensitivity values of $0.85{\pm}0.14$ and $0.53{\pm}0.04$ for l and m, respectively. These l and m values were similar to those obtained previously for the complex chemical substances dimethyl thiophosphorochloridate; N,N,N',N'-tetramethyldiamidophosphorochloridate; 2-phenyl-2-ketoethyl tosylate; diphenyl thiophosphinyl chloride; and 9-fluorenyl chloroformate. As with the five previously studied solvolyses, an $S_N2$ pathway is proposed for the solvolyses of TC1. For four representative solvents, the rate constants were measured at several temperatures, and activation parameters (${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ and ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$) were estimated. These activation parameters are also in line with the values expected for an $S_N2$ reaction.

The solvolysis rate constants of piperonyloyl chloride (1) in 27 different solvents are well correlated with the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, using the $N_T$ solvent nucleophilicity scale, $Y_{Cl}$ solvent ionizing scale, and I aromatic ring parameter with sensitivity values of $0.30{\pm}0.05$, $0.71{\pm}0.02$, and $0.60{\pm}0.04$ for l, m, and h, respectively. The solvent kinetic isotope effect values (SKIE, $k_{MeOH}/k_{MeOD}$ and $k_{50%MeOD-50%D2O}$) of 1.16 and 1.12 were also in accord with the values for the $S_N1$ mechanism and/or the dissociative $S_N2$ mechanism. The product selectivity values (S) for solvolysis of 1 in alcohol/water mixtures were in the range of 0.5 to 1.9, which is also consistent with the proposed unimolecular ionization mechanism.

The solvolysis of (1s)-(+)-menthyl chloroformate (1) were studied kinetically in 28 pure and various mixed solvents. The analysis using the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation in the solvolysis of 1 obtained the l value of 2.46 ± 0.18, the m value of 0.91 ± 0.07, and the correlation coefficient of 0.950. The solvolysis of 1 might proceed via an associative S_N2 mechanism enhancing bond making than bond breaking in the transition state (TS). The value of l/m is 2.7 within the ranges of value found in associative S_N2 reaction. This interpretation is further supported by a relatively large solvent kinetic isotope effect (SKIE, 2.16).

The second order rate constants for the hydrolysis of substituted phenyl N,N-diethyl-P-benzylphosphonamidates (2,4-$(NO_2)_2$, 4-$NO_2$, 4-CN, 4-Cl, 4-H)in 20% dioxane-water (v/v) have been determined by UV/Vis spectrophotometric method at various temperatures. The activation parameters (Ea, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$,${\Delta}S^{\neq}$) were calculated from the rate constants and the reaction constant ($\rho$) was also estimated by Hammett equation. The activation entropies of the title reactions show considerably negative values, this result is not consistent with a dissociative mechanism (EA) in which a positive or a slightly negative value of the entropy of activation should be expected. Further, kinetic evidence for an associative mechanism (AE) was obtained from the linear free energy relationship. By the results of kinetic study for the alkaline hydrolysis of substituted phenyl N,N-diethyl-P-benzylphosphonamidates, it may be concluded that these reactions proceed through an associative mechanism.

Rates of solvolyses of diphenyl thiophosphorochloridate ($(PhO)_2$PSCl, 1) in ethanol, methanol, and aqueous binary mixtures incorporating ethanol, methanol, acetone and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) are reported. For four representative solvents, studies were made at several temperatures and activation parameters were determined. The 30 solvents gave a reasonably precise extended Grunwald-Winstein plot, correlation coefficient (R) of 0.989. The sensitivity values (l = 1.29 and m = 0.64) of diphenyl thiophosphorochloridate ($(PhO)_2$PSCl, 1) were similar to those obtained for diphenyl phosphorochloridate ($(PhO)_2$POCl, 2), diphenylphosphinyl chloride ($Ph_2$POCl, 3) and diphenylthiophosphinyl chloride ($Ph_2$PSCl, 4). As with the previously studied of 3~4 solvolyses, an $S_N$ pathway is proposed for the solvolyses of diphenyl thiophosphorochloridate (1). The activation parameters, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}\;(=11.6{\sim}13.9\;kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1})\;and\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}\; (=\;-32.1\;{\sim}\;-42.7\;cal{\cdot}mol^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1})$, were determined, and they were in line with values expected for an $S_N$2 reaction. The large kinetic solvent isotope effects (KSIE, 2.44 in MeOH/MeOD and 3.46 in $H_2O/D_2$O) are also well explained by the proposed $S_N$2 mechanism.

Substituent effects of substrate and nucleophile for the reaction of substituted phenacyl tosylates with pyridines were determined conductometrically in acetonitrile. Activation parameters for these reactions were also calculated. The substituent effects in nucleophile were increased with electron-donating power of pyridines and Br${\o}$nsted linear relationship was shown. Rate constant was increased by both electron-donating and electron-attracting groups in the substrate. It seems that dissociative S$_{N}$2 ("loose" transition state) mechanism is operating in the case of electron-donating substituents while associative S$_{N}$2 ("tight" transition state) mechanism is operative in the case of electron-attracting substituents.

The solvolysis rate constants of 2,4-dimethoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride (1) in 30 different solvents are well correlated with the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, using the $N_T$ solvent nucleophilicity scale and $Y_{Cl}$ solvent ionizing scale, with sensitivity values of $0.93{\pm}0.14$ and $0.65{\pm}0.06$ for l and m, respectively. These l and m values can be considered to support a $S_N2$ reaction pathway. The activation enthalpies (${\Delta}H^{\neq}$) were 12.4 to $14.6kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ and the activation entropies (${\Delta}S^{\neq}$) were -15.5 to -$32.3kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$, which is consistent with the proposed bimolecular reaction mechanism. The solvent kinetic isotope effects (SKIE) were 1.74 to 1.86, which is also in accord with the $S_N2$ mechanism and was possibly assisted using a general-base catalysis. The values of product selectivity (S) for solvolyses of 1 in alcohol/water mixtures was 0.57 to 6.5, which is also consistent with the proposed bimolecular reaction mechanism. Third-order rate constants, $k_{ww}$ and $k_{aa}$, were calculated from the rate constants ($k_{obs}$), together with $k_{aw}$ and $k_{wa}$ calculated from the intercept and slope of the plot of 1/S vs. [water]/[alcohol]. The calculated rate constants, $k_{calc}$ ($k_{ww}$, $k_{aw}$, $k_{wa}$ and $k_{aa}$), are in satisfactory agreement with the experimental values, supporting the stoichiometric solvation effect analysis.

The solvolysis rate constants of 2,2,2-trichloroethyl chloroformate ($Cl_3CCH_2OCOCl$, $\mathbf{3}$) in 30 different solvents are well correlated with the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, using the $N_T$ solvent nucleophilicity scale and the $Y_{Cl}$ solvent ionizing scale, with sensitivity values of $1.28{\pm}0.06$ and $0.46{\pm}0.03$ for $l$ and $m$, respectively. The activation enthalpies (${\Delta}H^{\neq}$) are 10.1 to 12.8 $kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ and the activation entropies (${\Delta}S^{\neq}$) are -27.8 to -36.8 $cal{\cdot}mol^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$, which is consistent with the proposed bimolecular reaction mechanism. The kinetic solvent isotope effect ($k_{MeOH}/k_{MeOD}$) of 2.39 is also in accord with $S_N2$ mechanism probably assisted by general-base catalysis.
