Ranks (![[triple bond, length half m-dash]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_e007.gif)
nucleofugalities) of Br, Cl, OSO2C6H4Me, SO2Ph, SPh, and Oph as leaving groups in sulphonyl-activated cyclopropane-forming eliminations have been determined; a rectilinear correlation between rank and the pka of the conjugate acid of the leaving group is found in direct contrast with behaviour in alkene-forming elimination.
