A maximum in a Grunwald–Winstein plot for a limiting SN1 solvolysis
Abstract
The Grunwald–Winstein Y values for acetone–methanol mixtures vary appreciably and in a uniform manner but the specific rates of solvolysis of 2-adamantyl perchlorate vary by less than threefold over a range of from 5 to 100% methanol content and a shallow maximum is observed.
