General description

The influence of carbon-carbon multiple bonds on the solvolyses of 2-chloro-2-methylbutane has been critically evaluated through the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation. The rate constant for the SN 1 hydrolysis of 2-chloro-2-methylbutane has been measured near the consolute point of the liquid mixture of isobutyric acid and water.
