The hydrolysis of 2-methoxy-2,3-dihydropyran shows a normal isotope effect (kH/kD > 1) under catalysis by the hydrogen ion and gives an accurately linear dependence of reaction rate upon undissociated acid concentration in cyanoacetic acid and formic acid buffer solutions. This substrate, therefore, unlike its higher homolog, 9-methoxyoxacyclonon-2-ene, provides no evidence in support of an anything but a normal mechanism for vinyl ether hydrolysis. Analysis of the hydrogen isotope effect suggests that a minor amount (8%) of this hydrolysis occurs via reaction of the acetal functional group.

Abstract The substance BK 129 - 1-[2-(2-pentyloxyphenylcarbamoyloxy)-(2-methoxymethyl)-ethyl]-perhydroazepinium chloride was prepared in terms of influence of the connecting chain between the carbamate functional group and the basic part of molecule on biological activity. Such a structural feature is important with regard to its stability. In this work we determined the rate constants of alkaline hydrolysis of this compound at increased temperature under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. The hydrolysis was also performed in buffer solutions with the purpose of evaluating its stability. Non-isothermal tests of stability enable to reduce the number of analyses. The necessary data for stability of compound are in this way achieved in a short time.

The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the nine-membered ring cyclic vinyl ether, oxacyclonon-2,8-diene, occurs with a normal isotope effect, [Formula: see text], which indicates that this reaction proceeds by the conventional vinyl ether hydrolysis mechanism involving rate-determining proton transfer to carbon. The specific rate of this reaction, [Formula: see text], may then be used to show that there is no significant ring-size effect on the rate of hydrolysis of a vinyl ether group in a nine-membered ring. The previously noted unusually great reactivity of the vinyl ether group in 9-methoxyoxacyclonon-2-ene, for which an unorthodox reaction mechanism has been claimed, must therefore be due to some other cause.
