Orientation effects in the sulphonation of anisidinium ions in sulphuric acid
Abstract
The rate and position of monosulphonation of the ions NN-dimethyl-m-anisidinium, NN-dimethyl-p-anisidinium, and NNN-trimethyl-p-anisidinium have been recorded in D2SO4. The reaction is of the first order with respect to the anisidinium ion. A limited comparison of orientation effects of sulphonation and hydrogen isotope exchange is given with respect to the additivity principle of partial rate factors associated with substituents.
