The pseudo-first order rate constants have been obtained for the solvolysis of benzoyl cyanide in various aqueous solvent mixtures and ethanol-trifluoroethanol mixtures at 1, 5, 10, 15 and $20^{\circ}C$. Values of n in the Kivinen polt, m values of Grunwald-Winstein polt, $\beta$ values of Leffler relationship and values of m and l in the extended Grunwald-Winstein polt have been calculated and studied the transition state variation caused by solvent changes using the More O'Ferrall polt and quantum mechanical approach. It has been shown that the reaction proceed via the associative $S_N2$ mechanism, using the transition state parameters and quantum mechanical model approach.

The solvolysis rate constants of di-n-butyl phosphorochloridate ((CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂O)₂POCI, 1) in 28 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 the sensitivities values of 1.40 and 0.42 for l and m, respectively. These l and m values can be considered to support an S_N2 reaction pathway. This interpretation is further supported by the activation parameters, i.e., relatively small positive ΔH^≠ (8.0 to 15.9 kcal·mol⁻¹ ) values and large negative ΔS^≠ (−25.8 to −53.1 cal·mol⁻¹ ·K⁻¹ ) values, the Kivinen’s n values (0.9~1.7), and the solvent kinetic isotope effect (1.62).

Kinetic studies on the solvolysis of para-methyl benzyl nitrate and benzyl nitrate were carried out in aqueous methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane mixtures at 60$^{\circ}$C. The rates were faster in protic solvent mixtures than in aprotic solvent mixtures. This was considered in the light of transition state stabilization by hydrogen bonding solvation of protic solvent mixtures. Grunwald-Winstein equation, extended Grunwald-Winstein equation and correlation between E$_T$(30) and rate constant were applied in order to discuss the transition state variations caused by changing benzyl substituents and solvents. The results showed that strong electrophilic assistance of solvent is operative in the the water-rich solvents.

Solvolyses of para-substituted cinnamoyl chlorides in aqueous binary mixtures of acetone, ethanol, methanol were investigated at 25.0$^{\circ}C$. These data were interpreted using the Grunwald-Winstein relationship, Hammett equation, and quantum mechanical model. Grunwald-Winstein plots of the first-order rate constants for para-substituted cinnamoyl chlorides with $Y_{CI}$ showed marked dispersions into three separate curves for the three aqueous mixtures with a large m vaIue for aqueous alcohol solvents. This study has shown that the potential energy surface and quanturm mechanical model predict transition state variation correctly for $S_N1$ like $S_N2$ reaction mechanism of para-substituted cinnamoyl chlorides.

The solvolysis rate constants of biphenyl-4-carbonyl chloride (C₆H₅C₆H₅COCl, 1) in 19 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 0.31±0.10, 0.46±0.05, and 0.96±0.20 for l, m, and h, respectively. These l, m, and h values can be considered to support a dissciative S_N2 reaction pathway. This interpretation is further supported by the activation parameters, i.e., relatively small positive ΔH^‡ (15.3~16.1 kcal/mol) values and large negative ΔS^‡ (−17.2~−20.0 cal/mol·K) values.

The pseudo-first order rate constants have been obtained for the solvolysis of pseudo-saccharinechloride in MeOH-$H_2O$, EtOH-$H_2O$, MeOH-MeCN and MeOH-$(Me)_2$CO solvents mixtures at various temperatures. Values of n and m in the Kivinen and Grunwald-Winstein plots, respectively, have been determined and the Taft's solvatochromic parameters were obtained; based on these solvent effect parameters as well as on the activation parameters it was concluded that reaction proceeds via an $S_N2$ mechanism.

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.

The rate constants for the hydrolysis of benzenesulfonylimido phosgene at various pH were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in 1 : 4 dioxane-water mixed solvents at 25$^{\circ}$C and a rate equation which can be applied over a wide pH range was obtained. Based on the Grunwald-Winstein equation, m = 0.4 was obtained. The thermodynamic activation parameters for the hydrolysis were ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ = 15kcal mol$^{-1}$, ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$ = 21e.u. at pH 4.0 and $ {\Delta}H^{\neq}$ = 8kcal. mol$^{-1}$, ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$ = -39e.u. at pH 11.0, respectively. It was concluded that the hydrolysis of benzenesulfonylimido phosgene in 1 : 4 dioxane-water mixed solvents proceed via nucleophilic addition-elimination.

Rate constants of solvolysis of 2-thiophenesulfonyl chloride were determined in aqueous binary mixtures with methanol, ethanol, acetone in water and in methanol. These data are interpreted using the equation of Grunwald-Winstein and Kivinen relationship. Also, kinetic solvent isotope effects in water and in methanol and product selectivities in alcohol-water mixtures were determined. Kinetic solvent isotope effect for hydrolysis of 2-thiopenesulfonyl chloride was 2.24 and 1.47 for methanol and water, respectively. Selectivity values for formation of ester relative to acid in ethanol-water mixtures show maximum S value. From kinetic solvent isotope effect in methanol and water, selectivity data in aqueous alcoholic solvents and solvent effects, it is proposed that the reaction channel favoured in low polarity solvents is general-base catalysis and/or is possibly addition elimination (S$_A$N) reaction pathway and in high polarity solvents iS S$_N$2 reaction mechanism.
