The water-catalysed (spontaneous) hydrolysis of bis(p-nitrophenyl) sulphite in aqueous dioxane exhibits a solvent deuterium isotope effect of kH2O/kD2O = 3.21 and is second order in water concentration.The proton inventory plot for mixtures of protium oxide-deuterium oxide shows significant downward curvature and suggests the involvement of three equivalent protons.Several possible transition states are considered.Key words: Proton inventory; sulphite ester hydrolysis
