Abstract
Abstract Methyl and ethyl-4-[(4′-substituted phenylsulfonyl)methyl]-3-nitrobenzoates and the corresponding sulfinyl derivatives have been synthesized. The structure of these esters were proved by IR, NMR and mass spectra. A linear relationship between δ-ppm values of the benzylic protons and [sgrave]-Hammett values of the 4′-substituents has been found. The carbon-sulfur bond fission with 5% sodium hydroxide solution in addition to the alkaline ester hydrolysis is discussed.
