Abstract: | Heterolysis of 1-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane in cyclohexane (E1 reaction) involves solvation of the transition state (ΔS≡ = ?81 J mol?1K?1), while heterolysis of 1-chloro-1-methylcyclohexane is characterized by desolvation of the transition state (ΔS≡ = 92 J mol?1K?1). The probability for the formation of transition state (interaction between cationoid intermediate and solvent cavity) increases in the first case due to enhanced stability of the solvated intermediate, and in the second, due to reduction in its size. The bromide/chloride heterolysis rate ratio decreases as the ionizing power of aprotic solvent decreases and that of protic solvent increases. |
