The hydrolysis reactions of several title esters in water at 60°C follow the rate law kobs = (ka + kb[OH-])/(1 + αH/Ka), where Ka is the ionization constant of the hydroxy group of the ester and kb is the second-order rate constant for the SN2(S) attack of hydroxide ion on the ionized ester. Hammett and Br?nsted correlations are consistent with a previous proposal that the mechanism related to ka is dissociative. An unusual relationship between ka values and redox equilibrium constants for substituted quinones is found to hold: this finding further supports the dissociative nature of the pathway related to ka.
Sulfonation of chloro- and dichloroanisoles with concentrated aqueous sulfuric acid and sulfur trioxide. Demethylation of chloroanisolesulfonic acids in sulfuric acid systems

The nine chloro- and dichloroanisoles have been sulfonated with sulfuric acid.The observed sulfonic acid isomer distributions are determined mainly by the ortho- and para-directing effect of the methoxy substituent.In the reaction with sulfuric acid, the initially formed chloro- and dichloroanisolesulfonic acids are demethylated to give the corresponding phenolsulfonic acids.Demethylation occurs only in those cases where the methoxy substituent is sterically hindered by an o-chloro and/or o-sulfo substituent.Reaction of 2,3- and 3,5-dichloroanisole with fuming sulfuric acid yields initially the 4,6- and 2,4-disulfonic acids, respectively.The disulfonic acids are converted to the corresponding hydrogen sulfates either by direct sulfodemethylation or by protodemethylation followed by subsequent sulfation.The 2,3-dichloro-4,6-disulfophenyl hydrogen sulfate cyclizes to the 1,3,2,4-benzodioxadithiin 2,2,4,4-tetraoxide 4.The sulfonation of the chloro- and dichloroanisoles with SO3 in the solvents nitromethane or CCl3F leads only to sulfodeprotonation.
