The kinetics of 2-anthracenesulfonyl chloride in methanol-water, ethanol-water, acetone-water and acetonitrile-water has been studied by electroconductometric method. For media in which water has the same mole fraction, the rate was greater in protic solvent than in dipolar aprotic solvent and it was greater consistently in methanol-water than in ethanol-water over the whole range of solvent composition investigated, while the two rates in acetone-water and acetonitrile-water inverted at about 0.9 of mole fraction of water. Both m value, susceptibility of rate to the ionizing power and n value, solvent participation number in the transition state were much smaller in protic solvent. These values and the activation parameters show that solvolysis of 2-anthracenesulfonyl chloride proceeds by $ S_N2$ mechanism.
