Abstract
Sulphonylation in the reactions of benzene, chlorobenzene, and toluene with chlorosulphuric acid in nitromethane and in dichloromethane has been studied. From the kinetic results it was concluded that the reactive electrophile in the sulphonylation in nitromethane is ArS2O6H2 +. It is proposed that this entity also leads to secondary sulphonation. For dichloromethane as solvent the observed kinetics may be explained in terms of ArS2O6H,ClSO3H as the reactive sulphonylating entity.Keywords
