Abstract The role of the solvent in reactions involving ions is considered in relation to the structure of liquids. The rate constants and activation parameters for ligand substitutions at divalent transition metal cations in various solvents are compared with those for solvent exchanges. The differences are related to structural properties of the solvents, represented by their heats of evaporation and fluidities, and interpreted with the aid of a model developed from that of Frank and Wen. Water is not a typical solvent.
