Abstract: The kinetic data are reported for the reactions between Cr(CO)6 and the entering lin-gands L(where L=CH3CN,PPh3) in the presence of substituted iodosylbenzenes R-C6H4IO to form Cr(CO)5L.The results indicate that the steric hindrance of substituents of R-C6H4IO increases the rate of the reactions,the reactivities decreases in the order;o-substituted>m-substi-tuted>p-substituted>unsubstituted.There is a good linear correlation between the rate of O-a-torn transfer reactions and the electronic factors of p-substituted iodosylbenzenes,and the electron-withdrawing substituents make the reaction faster,the reactivities of R-C6H4IO increase with weakening the I-Obond strengths at the similar steric hindrance.
