Abstract
Two‐parameter equation correlations are reported for radical reactions of aromatic compounds. In these correlations polar and resonance substituent constants identical with the substituent constants of aliphatic compounds were used. The equations correlate the rate constants for H abstraction reactions and for the addition of a variety of free radicals to the ortho‐, meta‐, and para‐substituted aromatic compounds. Besides, they correlate parameters of the spectra for substituted aromatic radicals. The correlations show that the effects of para substituents on the reactions studied are nearly entirely resonance effects, whereas for the meta‐ and ortho‐substituted compounds polar (inductive) effects become essential. Application of the two‐parameter correlations permits also to determine the structure of transition states (σ or π‐complex) in free‐radical reactions.

Cells of Pseudomonas cepacia were immobilized in calcium alginate gel and their metabolic responses when exposed to a range of derivatized aromatic compounds were studied. This was achieved by placing the immobilized cells in close proximity to an oxygen electrode or within a simple flow calorimeter
