Abstract	A study of the relative rates of the alkyl hydrogen abstraction from a series of meta and para substituted t-butylbenzenes by the chlorine atom at 70°C has been carried out. Application of the Hammett equation yielded a ρ value of -0.44 for the para compounds. Possible explanations for the non-linearity of the meta compounds are offered. Application of the Kirkwood-Westheimer field-effect model for the transmission of substituent effects provides an excellent correlation with the observed relative rate constants.
