Abstract
The kinetics of n-butylaminolysis of acyl-substituted phenyl tiolbenzoates in acetonitrile at 25°C was studied. From the second order rate constants a Hammett rho value of 1.45 was obtained. The results indicate a proinounced neighboring group effect in the reaction of phenyl thiolsalicylate, providing the first kinetic evidence for intramolecular general acid participation by a hydroxy function in an aprotic solvent.
