The reaction of para-substituted phenyl isocyanates with amines and alcohols was studied by stopped-flow method. The Hammett correlation obtained showed that the sensitivity of the above mentioned reactions toward substituent effects is the same as that of analogous reactions of phenyl isothiocyanates (ρ ~ 2). The rate constants of these reactions were found to be affected more by steric effects than by solvent effects. An one step multicentre mechanism with partial charges in transition state has been proposed for the title reactions.

The second-order rate constants have been measured over a range of temperatures for the proton-transter reactions from di-(4-nitrophenyl)methane to ethoxide, isopropoxide, and t-butoxide ions in solvents consisting of the corresponding alcohols containing 10% toluene by volume. The activation parameters ΔH≠ and ΔS≠ have been calculated and an interpretation of them is given in terms of solvation effects during the activation process. A comparison between the activation parameters for proton transfers and E2 olefin-forming β-elimination reactions is made and discussed with respect to transition state character of the latter reactions.

Kinetics Of

The kinetics of oxidation of a series of eight N-(substituted benzyl)acridans (3, NBA's) by 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ), p-chloranil (CA), 2,3-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DCBQ), 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) in acetonitrile (AN) and by BQ in 50:50 (v/v) AN-water were measured at 25 °C. Equilibrium constants for pseudobase formation, [Formula: see text], from the corresponding acridinium ions (4) were measured in water at 25 °C. Hammett correlations of the second-order rate constants for reaction of the NBA's without ortho substitutents (3a–e) led to ρ values of −0.29 (BQ, AN), −0.55 (CA), −0.56 (DCBQ), −0.64 (TCNQ), −0.41 (TCNE), and −0.47 (BQ, 50:50 AN–water). The second-order rate constants for 3a–e also give good linear free energy correlations with the [Formula: see text] values of 4a–e. These correlations and the [Formula: see text] values for the ortho-substituted acridinium ions (4f, g, h) are used to calculate rate constants for oxidation of the corresponding ortho-substituted NBA's (3f, g, h). The rate constants calculated in this way are 4.7 to 6.6 times and 6.4 to 12 times larger, respectively, than the observed rate constants for N-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl) and N-(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)acridan (3g and h). The variations in ρ values are attributed mainly to differences in the amount of electrostatic stabilization in the transition state resulting from differences in the separation of donor and acceptor and the degree of delocalization of the negative charge. The rate retarding effect of a pair of ortho substituents is attributed to sterie effects in a preferred face-to-face transition state.
