First-order solvolysis rate constants are reported for solvolyses of acetyl chloride in methanol and MeOD, and in binary aqueous mixtures with acetone, acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, and trifluoroethanol at 0 °C. Product selectivities (S = [MeCOOR]/[MeCOOH] × [water]/[alcohol]) are reported for solvolyses in ethanol/ and methanol/water at 0 °C. Solvolyses of acetyl chloride show a high sensitivity to changes in solvent ionizing power, consistent with C−Cl bond cleavage.

Our results indicate that CH3CO, generated as a primary photoproduct in the dissociation of acetyl chloride, subsequently decomposes to produce CH3 and CO. Energetic constraints in the mechanism of Ethanol chloride dissociation are discussed.

The zero-point average structures of Ethanol chloride and acetyl bromide have been determined by the combined use of their moments of inertia and average distances, obtained by means of microwave spectroscopy and electron diffraction.
