The rate coefficients for the reaction with diazodiphenylmethane in ethanol, t-butyl alcohol, and ethyl acetate at 30° and the pKa values in water at 25° of fourteen 3-substituted acrylic acids have been determined. The effect of substitution is assessed by use of linear free energy relations. A definite incremental acid-strengthening effect solely due to cis-substitution is confirmed. This is not a "bulk" steric effect and is due solely to the orientation of substitution. The polar effect of a substituent is found to be approximately the same from the cis- or trans-position. An attempt is made to test the suggested mechanisms for the transmission of the polar effect. In the reactions studied the transmission of the polar effect in 3-substituted acrylic acid and ortho-substituted benzoic acids is approximately twice that of the meta- or para-substituted benzoic acids. This appears to be reasonably accommodated by a significant field effect.

The rate coefficients for the reaction with diazodiphenylmethane in methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol,t-butyl alcohol, 2-methoxyethanol, 2-n-butoxyethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethyl acetate, and toluene at 30° and the pKa values in water, 50% ethanol–water, and 80% 2-methoxyethanol–water of 18 substituted acetic and propionic acids have been determined. A further 14 acids have been studied to a more limited extent. The effect of substitution has been estimated by linear free energy relations. The reaction constants for the ionization reaction are almost independent of the medium. This is interpreted as being due to the field effect of the proximate polar substituents passing through the molecular cavity almost alone. The occurrence of steric inhibition of solvation causing acid weakening for bulky multi-substitution is confirmed. The reaction constants for the esterification reaction are affected by the solvent. This is attributed to dependence on solvation of the transition state.

The rate coefficients for the reaction with diazodiphenylmethane in methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, t-butyl alcohol, 2-methoxyethanol, 2-n-butoxyethanol, and ethyl acetate at 30° and the pKa values in 80% 2-n-butoxyethanol–water of a series of 9-substituted 10-anthroic and 8-substituted 1-naphthoic acids have been determined. The effect of substitution has been analyzed by linear free energy relations. The variation in the susceptibilities of the systems to polar substituent effects with the medium are examined. The occurrence of reversed dipolar substituent effects in the reactions of the 1,8-naphthoic acids is detected. The implications of the results for the inductive and field effect models for the transmission of polar effects are discussed.

The kinetics of decomposition of 1,3-bis(4-methylphenyl)triazene catalyzed with 13 substituted benzoic acids of various concentrations have been measured in 25 vol.% aqueous methanol at 25.0 °C. The rate constants observed (297 data) have be used as values of independent variable in a series of models of the catalyzed decomposition. For the catalytic particles were considered the undissociated acid, its conjugated base, and the proton in both the specific and general catalyses. Some models presumed formation of reactive or nonreactive complexes of the individual reactants. The substituent effect is described by the Hammett equation. The statistically best model in which the observed rate constant is a superposition of a term describing the dependence on proton concentration and a term describing the dependence on the product of concentrations of proton and conjugated base is valid with the presumption of complete proton transfer from the catalyst acid to substrate, which has been proved. The behaviour of 4-dimethylamino, 4-amino, and 3-amino derivatives is anomalous (lower catalytic activity as compared with benzoic acid). This supports the presumed participation of conjugated base in the title process.
