The sulfonylation of phenols by aromatic sulfonyl chlorides in the presence of pyridine bases in nitrobenzene was studied by potentiometric titration. A linear dependence was found between the logarithms of the catalytic constants and the sigma-Hammett constants of the substituents in sulfonyl chloride (rho = 1.06). The contribution of the inductive (rho/sup 0/ = 0.39) and resonance (rho/sub R//sup +/ = -0.45) effects of the substituents in phenol to the reaction kinetics of the process was evaluated by means of a two-parametric equation. The deuterium kinetic isotopic effect (k/sub N//sup D//d/sub N//sup H/ = 1) was studied. It was concluded that the mechanism of the catalysis is nucleophilic with generally basic assistance from the side of a free base.
