The rate of the acid catalyzed hydrogen-isotope exchange between p- deuteroanisole and the solvent systems ZnCl/sub 2/--CH/sub 3/COOH and ZnCl/sub 2/- -HCl--CH/sub 3/COOH has been measured at 25 deg . The rate parallels, to a close approximation, the extent of ionization of indicators such as 4-chloro-2- nitroaniline and p-nitrodiphenylamine in these systems. The ionization process of these compounds is, therefore, considered to involve only hydrogen transfer. The details of the exchange mechanism are discussed. (auth)
