Abstract
The rates of saponification of ethyl benzoate, ethyl toluate, ethyl anisate, ethyl p-chlorobenzoate, and ethyl p-nitrobenzoate have been measured in several alcohol-water mixtures. The relative rates of saponification of the substituted benzoic esters have been compared with those computed by the Kirkwood-Westheimer theory.
