Linear mathematical models which describe the hydrolysis of alkyl- and halobenzenesulfonyl acids under the conditions for their isomerization in sulfuric acid have been obtained by the method of mathematical experiment planning.The value of the effective rate constants of hydrolysis calculated according to the models for comparative conditions (150 deg C, 3 moles of 85percent sulfuric acid) were used to obtain the correlation between log kh and the ? constants of the substituents.The correlation corresponds the electrophilic nature of the hydrolysis process (ρ = -4.69).The strong influence of the electronic effects of the substituents on the rate of hydrolysis is an indication of the development of a considerable positive charge on the reaction center in the transition state.

The sulfonation of cumene by sulfuric and chloro- and fluorosulfonic acids in the range of 0-100 deg C under heterogenous and heterogenous-homogenous conditions gives mixtures of isomeric sulfonyl halides and/or sulfonic acids, in which the para isomer predominates (90-95percent of the total isomers at temperatures above 75 deg C and/or with the addition of the sulfonating agent to the cumene).If the reagents are mixed in the opposite order and at low temperatures (0-25 deg C), the proportion of the ortho isomer in the mixture of sulfo products increases to 20-22percent.The yield of the sulfonyl halides show an extremal relationship with temperature.The composition of the sulfonic acids and their halides formed under the conditions of a single experiment with the halogenosulfonic acids differ as a result, probably, of the nonequilibrium nature of the process and of the presence of several paths to the formation of the acid halides.
