Abstract
The rate constants of the reaction of triethylamine with ethyl iodide have been measured in 15 solvents at the temperatures of 293, 313, 333 and 373 K. The solvent characteristics by Kamlet and Taft and those by Pytela have been found to be excellently applicable to evaluation of influence of medium on this reaction at all the temperature mentioned. However, these methods give different results with regard to the proton-donor effects of solvents on the reaction.
