Solvolyses of isopropylsulfonyl chloride (IPSC) in water, D_2O,\;CH_3OD$, and in aqueous binary mixtures of acetone, ethanol and methanol are investigated at 25, 35 and 45$^{\circ}C$. The Grunwald-Winstein plot of first-order rate constants for the solvolytic reaction of IPSC with $Y_{Cl}$ (based on 2-adamantyl chloride) shows marked dispersions into three separate lines for three aqueous mixtures with a small slope (m < 0.30). The extended Grunwald-Winstein plots for the solvolysis of IPSC show better correlation. The kinetic solvent isotope effects determined in water and methanol are in consistent with the proposed mechanism of the general base catalyzed and/or $S_AN/S_N2$ reaction mechanism for IPSC solvolyses based on mass law and stoichiometric solvation effect studies.

The solvolysis rate constants of 5-dimethylamino-naphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride ($(CH_3)_2NC_{10}H_6SO_2Cl$, 1) in 31 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 $0.96{\pm}0.09$ and $0.53{\pm}0.03$ for l and m, respectively; the correlation coefficient value was 0.955. These l and m values can be considered to support an $S_N2$ reaction pathway having a transition state (TS) structure similar to that of the benzenesulfonyl chloride reaction. This interpretation is further supported by the activation parameters, i.e., relatively small positive ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ (12.0 to $15.9kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1}$) and large negative ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$ (-23.1 to $-36.3cal{\cdot}mol^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$) values, and the solvent kinetic isotope effects (SKIEs, 1.34 to 1.88). Also, the selectivity values (S = 1.2 to 2.9) obtained in binary solvents are consistent with the proposed 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.

Solvolyses of trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride (TFMSC) in water and in aqueous binary mixtures of acetone, ethanol and methanol are investigated at 25, 35 and 45 ${^{\circ}C}$. The Grunwald-Winstein plot of first-order rate constants for the solvolytic reaction of TFMSC with YCl (based on 2-adamantyl chloride) shows marked dispersions into three separate curves for three aqueous mixtures. The extended Grunwald-Winstein plots for the solvolysis of TFMSC show better correlation. The large negative ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$ and relatively small positive ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ reveals that the solvolytic reaction proceeds via a typical bimolecular reaction mechanism. The l and m values determined in various solvents are consistent with the proposed mechanism of the general base catalysis $S_AN/S_N2$reaction mechanism for TFMSC solvolyses based on mass law and stoichiometric solvation effect studies.

Solvolysis rates of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-l-phenyl-2,2,2-trifiuoroethyl chloride (1) and 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenylethyl chloride (2) were measured in a variety of aqueous binary solvents, and the solvent effect was treated with the Grunwald-Winstein equation. The solvent effect on the solvolysis of 1 failed to give a single linear correlations using the ordinary Y or YCl, but exhibited the wide split pattern which could not be related to the solvent nucleophilicity. The improved correlations with YBnCl and extended dual-parameter treatment, log (k/k0)=mYCl+hI (mΔYΔ), were observed for the solvolysis of 1. These results suggest that the incipient cationic charge in the solvolysis of 1 is delocalized strongly into the aryl-rings in the transition state. While the solvent effect on the solvolysis of 2 is better correlated with Y or YCl than YBnCl but the linearity is not satisfactory. The correlation is comparably improved by the use of the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, log (k/k0)=0.81YCl+0.26NOTs (R=0.994, SD=±0.12), indicating the cationic charge of reaction center of 2 was localized mostly in the transition state.

The rate constants for the solvolysis of anthraquinone-2-carbonyl chloride in binary solvent mixtures, methanol-acetonitrile, methanol-acetone, ethanol-acetonitrile and ethanol-acetone, have been studied by means of conductometry. Maximum rate phenomena were observed at the methanol mole fraction, $X_{MeOH}$ = 0.73~0.81 for methanol-acetonitrile and at $X_{MeOH}$ = 0.83 for methanol-acetone mixtures. The Kivinen and Grunwald-Winstein plots indicated that the reaction proceeds via $S_N2$ type mechanism. Application of Taft's solvatochromic correlation on the solvolysis rate revealed that both $\alpha$ and ${\pi}^*$ are important for reactions in methanol-acetonitrile and methanol-acetone mixtures, while only ${\alpha}$ influences significantly on the rate in ethanol-acetonitrile and ethanol-acetone mixtures.

Rates of solvolyses of 4-nitrophenyl phenyl thiophosphorochloridate (4-N$O_2$PhOP(S)(Cl)OPh, $\underline{1}$) in ethanol, methanol, and aqueous binary mixtures incorporating ethanol, methanol, acetone, and 2,2,2-trifluroethanol (TFE) are reported. Thermodynamic parameters were determined at several temperatures in three representative solvents. The extended Grunwald-Winstein equation was applied to 29 solvents and the correlation coefficient (R) showed 0.959. The sensitivities (l = 1.37 and m = 0.62) are similar to those obtained for diphenyl thiophosphorochloridate (($PhO)_2$PSCl, $\underline{2}$), diphenyl phosphorochloridate (($PhO)_2$POCl, $\underline{3}$), diphenyl phosphinic chloride ($Ph_2$POCl, $\underline{4}$), and diphenyl thiophosphinic chloride ($Ph_2$PSCl, $\underline{5}$). The solvolytic reaction mechanism of 4-nitrophenyl phenyl thiophosphorochloridate ($\underline{1}$) is suggested to be proceeded a $S_N$2 process as previously reported result. The activation enthalpies are shown as slightly low as ${\Delta}H^{\neq}\;=\;9.62\;to\;11.9\;kcal{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ and the activation entropies are shown as slightly high negative value as ${\Delta}S^{\neq}\;=\;-34.1\;to\;-44.9\;cal{\cdot}mol^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$ compared to the expected $S_N$2 reaction mechanism. Kinetic solvent isotope effects are accord with a typical $S_N$2 mechanism as shown in the range of 2.41 in MeOH/ MeOD and 2.57 in $H_2O/D_2O$ solvent mixtures.

Solvolysis rates of isopropenyl chloroformate (3) in water, $D_2O$, $CH_3OD$ and in aqueous methanol, ethanol, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE), acetone, 1,4-dioxane as well as TFE-ethanol at 10 ${^{\circ}C}$ are reported. Additional kinetic data for pure water, pure ethanol and 80%(w/w) 2,2,2-trifuoroethanol (T)-water (W) at various temperatures are also reported. These rates show the phenomena of maximum rates in specific solvents (30% (v/v) methanol-water and 20% (v/v) ethanol-water) and, variations in relative rates are small in aqueous alcohols. The kinetic data are analyzed in terms of GW correlations, steric effect, kinetic solvent isotope effects (KSIE), and a third order model based on general base catalysis (GBC). Solvolyses based on predominately stoichiometric solvation effect relative to medium solvation are proceeding in 3 and the results are remarkably similar to those for p-nitrobenzoyl chloride (4) in mechanism and reactivity.

The general equation for the substituent effect test, which was derived in the previous paper, has been extended to correlate thermodynamic parameters of solvolysis reaction by modifying the potential energy term to represent the effect of changes in solvent composition. The linear fits of the new equation, $\Delta{\Delta}H^\neq=a'Y+b\Delta{\Delta}S^\neq$, were tested with 35 examples from literature and average correlation coefficient of 0.977 was obtained. Examination of results showed that the equation is generally applicable to solvolysis reaction and helps elucidate some the difficulties experienced with the Grunwald-Winsteln equation. It has been stressed that the linear enthalpy-entropy effect exists only between the external enthalpy and entropy of activation, and therefore strictly it is the linear external enthalpy-entropy effect.

Solvolytic rate constants at 25 $^{\circ}C$ are reported for solvolysis of chlorodithioformate (1) in binary mixtures of water with acetone, ethanol, methanol, methanol-d, 50%methanol-d/50%D2O, and 2,2,2-trifluroethanol (TFE), and also in TFE-ethanol mixtures. The Grunwald-Winstein plot shows that the three aqueous mixtures exhibit dispersions into separate line. The correlation is improved only slightly by additional parameters NT for solvent nucleophilicity and/or I for aromatic ring parameter. Rate ratios in solvents of the same $Y_cl$ value, having different nucleophilicity provide measures of the minimum extent of nucleophilic solvent assistance, and the value of 3.35 for $[$k_{40EW}$/$k_97TFE$]_Y$ (EW = ethanol-water), is consistent with an essentially SN1 reaction mechanism. This study has shown that the magnitude of l, m and h values associated with a change of solvent composition is able to predict the SN1 reaction mechanism. log(k/$k_o$) = mY + lN + hI
