Abstract

The kinetics of the reaction of four X-3-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-1,2,3-benzoxathiazole 2,2-dioxides (X=S-Cl, 5-Br, 5-NO2 and 6-NO2) with hydroxide ion and imidazole in aqueous acetonitrile and aqueous ethanol solutions were investigated at various pressures. The volumes of activation were all found to be negative and consistent with a bimolecular reaction involving considerable solvent electrostriction. No significant dependence on the solvent composition was found.
