Abstract

The temperature dependence of the transition state volume, [Formula: see text], in a number of hydrolysis reactions is derived from pressure/rate data and partial volume temperature dependence. The values obtained for [Formula: see text] vary from near zero for p-methylbenzyl chloride to about 0.3 ml mol−1 deg−1 for isopropyl bromide. The interpretation of the experimental and derived values for these hydrolyses is discussed in terms of charge development with accompanying solvation effects about the solute.
