What is Concerning the Development of Scales of Solvent Ionizing Power Based on Solvolyses of Benzylic Substrates about?

## Abstract Based on analysis of recently reported measurements, it is suggested that, provided a sufficiently large set of specific rate measurements in a wide variety of solvent types is available, the negligible to moderate improvements in the correlations of other types of benzylic chlorides, which are gained by use of a benzylic chloride (in place of 1‐adamantyl chloride) as the standard substrate, do not justify the development of new specialized scales of solvent ionizing power. A similar conclusion is reached concerning solvent ionizing power scales developed for use with benzylic __p__‐nitrobenzoates. However, such scales could be helpful when specific rates of solvolysis in only a limited variety of solvents are available, e.g. when a change in mechanism severely limits the range of operation of one of the pathways. Contrary to a previous claim, variations in ion‐pair return could be the cause of deviations from Grunwald‐Winstein plots for solvolyses of benzhydryl chloride in fluorinated alcohol solvents; such effects could be coupled, at least in part, with variations in aromatic ring solvation.
