Abstract
Elimination reactions of (E)-2,4-(NO(2))(2)C(6)H(3)CHNOC(O)C(6)H(4)X (1) promoted by R(2)NH/R(2)NH(2)(+) in 70 mol % MeCN(aq) have been studied kinetically. The reactions are second-order and exhibit Bronsted beta = 0.27-0.32 and |beta(lg)| = 0.28-0.32. The result can be described by a negligible p(xy) interaction coefficient, p(xy) = partial differential beta/partial differential pK(lg) = partial differential beta(lg)/partial differential pK(BH) approximately = 0, which describes the interaction between the base catalyst and the leaving group. The negligible p(xy) coefficients are consistent with the (E1cb)(irr) mechanism.
