57. 12 The rate ratio between 9Cl and 8Cl has been reported as 211 in 80% ethanol at 70°C: Bingham, R. C.; Schleyer, P. v. R. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1971, 93, 3189-3199.
58. 34b However, the essential agreements of the δΔG‡ data for 7Cl with the bridgehead line suggest the discrete formation of an ion-pair intermediate that is usually the case in the solvolysis of bridgehead substrates.
