Abstract

The increasing α-effect observed in MeCN–H2O solvent mixtures, which contrasts with the previously found bell-shaped dependence on solvent composition in the DMSO–H2O system, is attributed to the differential solvent effect on basicities of the α- and normal nucleophiles in the former case.
