Recent studies indicate a renewed interest in the mode of interaction of substituents with reaction sites in heterocyclic systems. 3,4 We have investigated this question further through use of the solvolysis reaction: a very useful reaction in this respect, as it shows high sensitivity to resonance

✦ Synopsis
In a recent paper Clementi and Marino treated substituent effect data for trifluoroacetylation of 2-substituted furans, thiophenes, and pyrroles by correlation with c+ 2 P in the Hammett equation. The magnitudes cf p values obtained were discussed as being related to differences in positions of the transition states along the reaction coordinates. We report here evidence which suggests that the variation in p values for different aromatic substrates is closely related to differences between the substrates in the distribution of charge developed in the transition state. uur proposal of this relationship is based on data from our studies of substituent effects in the solvolysis of heteroaryl derivatives and on results from CNDO/2 molecular orbital calculations.
Several recent investigations 3,4 have demonstrated that equations which take into account variations in the balance of field and resonance effects describe aromatic substituent effects more accurately than the simple use of substituent constants, such as u i, defined from the benzene series. However, satis-
