Application of Linear Free Energy Relationships (LFER) to pKaH+ data in water at 25o C of deprotonation of protonated fused ring systems like benzimidazolium cations is carried out in the present work. With a good comparison of the sites of substituents with reference to a functional group in benzene ring and the imidazolium ring, an excellent Hammett correlation is observed for the deprotonation of (pKaH+) of protonated fused ring systems like benzimidazolium cations. For the three substituents OH, MeO and Me at position 4 in the benzimidazole satisfy the correlation with I values. A positive Hammet  values of 1.93 indicates that electron withdrawing substituents facilitate the deprotonation. Under the same conditions a Taft * value of 1.11 is obtained for the deprotonation of 2-substituted-benzimidazolium cations. The available pKaH+ data in 5% aq. ethanol at 30o C of 2-methyl benzimidazolium cations and 2-(hydroxyethyl) benzimidazolium cations also followed Hammett correlation. The lower Hammett  value of 0.89 for 2-(hydroxyethyl) benzimidazolium cation series than that of 1.78 of 2-methyl benzimidazolium cation series is explained in terms of strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding in 2-(hydroxyethyl) benzimidazolium cation which resists the easy deprotonation. Deprotonation of 1-substituted-benzimidazolium cations did not follow Hammett relation.

The accelerated formation of 2,3-diphenylquinoxalines in microdroplets generated in a nebulizer has been investigated by competition experiments in which equimolar quantities of 1,2-phenylenediamine, C6H4(NH2)2, and a 4-substituted homologue, XC6H3(NH2)2 [X = F, Cl, Br, CH3, CH3O, CO2CH3, CF3, CN or NO2], or a 4,5-disubstituted homologue, X2C6H2(NH2)2 [X = F, Cl, Br, or CH3], compete to condense with benzil, (C6H5CO)2. Electron-donating substituents (X = CH3 and CH3O) accelerate the reaction; in contrast, electron-attracting substituents (X = F, Cl, Br and particularly CO2CH3, CN, CF3 and NO2) retard it. A structure–reactivity relationship in the form of a Hammett correlation has been found by analyzing the ratio of 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline and the corresponding substituted-2,3-diphenylquinoxaline, giving a ρ value of −0.96, thus confirming that the electron density in the aromatic ring of the phenylenediamine component is reduced in the rate-limiting step in this accelerated condensation. This correlation shows that the phenylenediamine acts as a nucleophile in the reaction.

We revealed the mechanism of cellulose benzoylation in an ionic liquid by using Hammett parameters, and found that the benzoylation of cellulose exhibited a high C-6 regioselectivity.
