The second-order rate constants for the oxidation of various para-subs
tituted thioanisoles with substituted oxo(salen)manganese(v) complexes
have been measured spectrophotometrically in acetonitrile at 25 degre
es C, Electron-withdrawing substituents in thioanisoles and electron-r
eleasing substituents in oxo(salen)Mn-v complexes decrease the rate of
oxidation, Correlation analyses show the presence of an inverse relat
ionship between reactivity and selectivity in the reactions of various
thioanisoles with a given oxo(salen)Mn-v complex and also in various
oxo(salen)Mn-v complexes with a given thioanisole, Mathematical treatm
ent of the results has also been carried out.
