The nucleophilic substitution reactions of p-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides wiht p-substituted anilines were carried out in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol and 2-propanol mixtures. The salt effect was observed to be inhibited by the reaction of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol with nucleophiles. To investigate the effectiveness of the salt for the nucleophilic substitution reaction the relative salt effect was determined. According to the comparison with the inhibitive salt effect and the substituent effects for the substrates and nucleophiles, the reactions were predicted to be controlled by the salt effect more than substituent effect in HFP-PrOH mixtures.
