Sažetak

Kinetic data are presented for the reaction of alkylchromium complexes (H₂O)([14]aneN₄)CrR2+ ([14]aneN₄ = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclo-tetradecane) with Hg2+ via electrophilic substitution. The rate constants decrease in the order CH₃ (1.1 × 106 mol-1 dm3 s-1) > C₂H₅ (7.7 × 102) > C₃H₇ (59) > 2-C₃H₇ (0.12) > CH₂C(CH₃)₃ (0.0086). A series of meta and para substituted benzyl complexes obey a Ham-mett relationship with the reaction constant ρ = -1.66, consistent with electrophilic substitution at α-carbon.
