Solvolyses of Benzoyl Chlorides in Weakly Nucleophilic Media
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rate constants and activations parameters are reported for solvolyses of p-Z-substituted benzoyl chlorides (1, Z = OMe, Me, H, and Cl) in 97% w/w hexafluoroisopropanol-water (97H). Additional kinetic data are reported for solvolyses in acetic and formic acids. Plots of log k vs. σ(p) in 97H are consistent with previous research showing that a cationic reaction channel is dominant, even for solvolyses of 1, Z = NO(2). A benzoyl cation intermediate was trapped by Friedel-Crafts reaction with 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene in hexafluoroisopropanol. The results are explained by an S(N)2-S(N)1 spectrum of mechanisms with variations in nucleophilic solvent assistance. Ab initio calculations of heterolytic bond dissociation energies of various chloro- and fluoro-substituted and other benzoyl chlorides are correlated with log k for solvolyses.

متن کاملSolvent nucleophilicity. A scale based on triethyloxonium ion solvolysis
First-order rate coefficients have been obtained for the solvolysis of triethyloxonium hexafluorophosphate in a variety of organic and aqueous-organic solvents. These have been used to set up a scale of solvent nucleophilicities based upon the four-parameter (two-term) Grunwald-Winstein equation. The required corrections for variation in solvent influence upon the leaving group were estimated f...

Carbamoyl chlorides are important intermediates, both in the research laboratory and in industrial scale syntheses. The most studied and used are the disubstituted derivatives, incorporating either aryl or alkyl groups (Ar2NCOCl or R2NCOCl). Sometimes, the groups are tied back to give a ring and piperidino- and morpholino-derivatives are commonly encountered. Some studies have been made with tw...
