PYRIDINIUM ION REACTIVITIES: SUBSTITUENT EFFECT ON THE REVERSE MENSCHUTKIN REACTION OF 1-METHYLPYRIDINIUM CATIONS WITH IODIDE ANION

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(01)80854-6

Substituent effect on the reverse Menschutkin reaction of 1-methylpyridinium cations with iodide anion can be described in terms of the LArSR equation with <*>=3.60 which provides evidence against very late transition state of the nitrogen-to-iodine transmethylation.
