Solvent effects, when the classical transition state theory (TST) holds, can be interpreted following the Brønsted equation. However, when calculating the activity coefficient of the transition state, γ# it is important to take into account that this coefficient is different from that of the precursor complex, γPC. The activity coefficient of the latter is, in fact, that calculated in classical treatments of salt and solvent effects. In this paper it is shown how the quotients γ#/γPC change when the reaction medium changes. Therefore, the conclusions taken on the basis of classical treatments may be erroneous.

The kinetics of alkaline cleavage of o-nitrobenzyltrimethylsilane were examined in aqueous dioxane media. At high water concentrations, increases in solvent polarity retard the cleavage, as required by a mechanism involving charge dispersion in the transition state. At high dioxane concentrations, solvent polarity increases are accompanied by increases in the rate of reaction, a result which may reflect association between the solvent components.
