The kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis of 2‐thiophenyl‐3,5‐dinitropyridine were studied spectrophotometrically in different aquo‐organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, n ‐propyl alcohol, iso ‐propyl alcohol, t ‐butyl alcohol, acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, dioxane, and acetone at 30°C with various solvent compositions up to 80% (v/v) of organic components. An increase in the organic solvent percentage (v/v) has different effects on the reaction rate constants presumably due to hydrogen bond donor HBD and acceptor HBA of the medium and other solvatochromic parameters. Linear and nonlinear plots of log k against the reciprocal of the dielectric constant of the solvent were obtained. The effects are too complex to be analyzed in terms of a single parameter, but an approach using the Kamlet–Taft solvatochromic parameters is applied successfully to six mixed aquo‐organic solvent systems. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
