The absolute rate constants for the reactions of the nitrate radical (NO3.) with substituted toluenes in acetonitrile have been determined by the flash photolysis method.From the plots of the rate constants against the ionization energies, it was revealed that the reaction path for toluene derivatives with low ionization energies is different from that for toluene derivatives with high ionization energies.For toluene, a deuterium isotope effect was observed to be ca. 1.6, suggesting the direct hydrogen atom abstraction reaction; in this group, xylenes and p-chlorotoluene belong.For toluene derivatives with electron-withdrawing substit uents, NO3. may add to the phenyl rings followed by successive reactions.For both groups, linear correlations against ionization energies with negative slopes show that NO3. is highly electrophilic and that strong polar effects exist in the transition states of both reactions.For toluenes with methoxy groups, the electron-transfer reaction from methoxytoluene to NO3. is a main initial path, since the transient absorption band due to the cation radical of methoxytoluene was detected.
