A largely solvent‐separated ion pair 3 is the presumed intermediate in the hydroxylation of cyclohexenes with SO   4 ⊙⊖ . Radical anions like 1 and 2 are formed in a nearly diffusion‐controlled step. They are subsequently hydrolyzed via 3. The axial/equatorial selectivity of the reaction of H 2 O with 3 is much greater than that observed in the reaction of OH ⊙ with 4‐ tert ‐butylcyclohexene (90:10 vs. 58:42).
