The solvolysis of a series of l-aryl-l-tert-butylmethyl bromides (la-lg) in a variety of solvents were carried out. Linear relationships were observed from Hammett-type analysis of logarithm of rate constants using single-parameter Brown-Okamoto equation (Eqn. 1) and dual-parameter Yukawa-Tsuno equation
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
