The sulfuric acid catalyzed acylation of 2-methyl-5-nitroisocarbostyril with carboxylic acid anhydrides gave the corresponding 4-acylated derivatives 3, which underwent reductive cyclization to 2-substituted derivatives of 4-methyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4.3.2.de]isoquinolin-5-one (4). Alkaline hydrolysis of the six-membered lactam in 4 was accompanied by a retro-Mannich reaction to produce 2-substituted indole-4-carboxylic acids in about 40 % overall yield from 3.

A temperature-jump relaxation study is reported for the equilibration: 3-hydroxyphthalide (SH) [Formula: see text]o-formylbenzoate (R−) [Formula: see text]o-formylbenzoic acid (RH). A kinetic analysis is carried out in which SH and R− interconvert with catalysis in the ring opening direction by water and by added general bases. Excellent Brønsted plots based upon a series of oxyacid buffer catalysts are obtained. These have slopes β for the base-catalyzed ring opening of 0.81 and α for the reverse acid-catalyzed ring closing of 0.19. A mechanism where S−, the conjugate base of SH, is a discrete intermediate can be ruled out on the basis of the Brønsted values and the magnitudes of the rate constants. The lifetime of S− is estimated to lie in the range 10−11–10−15 s. Two mechanisms can be proposed. A fully concerted mechanism "enforced" by lifetimes less than 10−13 s involves direct interconversion of SH and R− with no intermediate. A preassociated mechanism "enforced" by lifetimes in the 10−11–10−12 s range requires, in the ring closing direction, that an acid catalyst be hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl in R−.

Kinetics of formation of 2-imino-4-thiazolidone from S-ethoxycarbonylmethylisothiouronium chloride has been studied in aqueous buffers and dilute hydrochloric acid. The reaction is subject to general base catalysis, the β value being 0.65. Its rate limiting step consists in acid-catalyzed splitting off of ethoxide ion from dipolar tetrahedral intermediate. At pH < 2 formation of this intermediate becomes rate-limiting; rate constant of its formation is 2 . 104 s-1.

Kinetics of formation of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles from 24 substitution derivatives of O-benzoylbenzamidoxime have been studied in sulphuric acid and aqueous ethanol media. It has been found that this medium requires introduction of the Hammett H0 function instead of the pH scale beginning as low as from 0.1% solutions of mineral acids. Effects of the acid concentration, ionic strength, and temperature on the reaction rate and on the kinetic isotope effect have been followed. From these dependences and from polar effects of substituents it was concluded that along with the cyclization to 1,2,4-oxadiazoles there proceeds hydrolysis to benzamidoxime and benzoic acid. The reaction is thermodynamically controlled by the acid-base equilibrium of the O-benzylated benzamidoximes.

Kinetics have been studied of gradual replacement of 4-methoxyphenylazo groups in 2,6-dioxo-5(3)-(4-methoxyphenylazo)-3(5)-(4-methoxyphenylhydrazono)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-4-carboxylic acid (IIIa) by 4-nitrophenylazo groups using the reaction with 4-nitrobenzenediazonium cation (IIc) in acetate and phosphate buffers. The rate constant of replacement of the second methoxyphenylazo group is lower by a factor of ca 60. From the experimentally found pKa values of the corresponding azohydrazone compounds with methoxy, chloro, or nitro substituent at 4-position (IIIa - IIIf) it has been concluded that the 5(3)-(4-methoxyphenylazo)-3(5)-(4-nitrophenylhydrazono) derivative is formed in the first step.

The reduction of several o,o'-dihydroxyazo-compounds is studied by means of pulse polarographic techniques (DPP, NPP and RPP). The compounds studied are the following: 2-(2'-hydroxyphenylazo)-phenol (o,o'-dihydroxyazobenzene), 1-(2'-hydroxy-1'-naphthylazo)-2-naphthol-4-sulphonic acid (calcon or Eriochrome Blue Black R), 1-(2'-hydroxy-4'-sulpho-1'-naphthylazo)-2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid (calcon carboxylic acid), and 1-(1'-hydroxy-2'-naphthylazo)-6-nitro-2-naphthol-4-sulphonic acid (Eriochrome Black T). Correlations between Ip and Epand experimental variables (pH, T, conc.) and instrumental parameters (dropping time, t, and pulse magnitude, ΔE) are established. Reaction mechanisms formerly proposed are discussed on the basis of the new obtained results, and the ranges are defined where adsorption and/or acid-base catalysis are operative.
