Abstract

A series of 4-phenyl and 4-anisyl-1-butyl p-bromobenzenesulfates with 3, 3-and 4, Cdimethyl groups was prepared, and acetolysis and formolysis rates were measured. The gem-dimethyl group can appreciably increase the tendency for aryl participation to occur in the solvolysis of these derivatives. Participation by both the 1-and 2 (6)-carbon atoms of the aroqatic ring is observed depending upon the substituents present. The formolysis of 4-(m ...
