Correlation of the rates of solvolyses of cinnamyl chloride
Y (EW = ethanol–water) is consistent with an essentially SN1 reaction mechanism. A linear relationship between 1/S and molar ratio of solvent was derived theoretically and validated experimentally for solvolyses of the above substrate from water up to 75% alcohol–water. The dependence of S on solvent composition and the absence of rate depression in the presence of added chloride anions are explained by product formation via a contact ion pair.
