β¦ Synopsis
The effect of substituents at C4, 5, 6 and 7 on solvolysis rates and products of 2-exo-and 2-endo-norbornyl tosylates confirms that differential carbon participation is responsible for varying exo/endo rate and product ratios.

The variable exo/endo rate ratios observed in the solvolysis of 6-exosubstituted exo-and endo-2-norbornyl p-toluenesulfonates are due to differential transmission of polar effects in the transition state for ionization.
The large difference between the reaction constants p, for the solvolysis of the 6-exo-and 7-anti-substituted norbornyl tosylates 3 and 1, respectively, is further proof for the hypothesis that 2-norbornyl cations are anisotropic with regard to the transmission of polar effects and that through spac
## Abstract The solvolysis rates and products of the 6β__exo__βsubstituted 2β__exo__β **1a**β**1u**, and 2β__endo__βnorbornyl __p__βtoluenesulfonates **2a**β**2u**, have been determined. In general, the rate constants for **1** and **2** (log __k__) correlate well with the inductive constants Ο of
