Abstract

A curved Hammett relationship was observed for the reaction of substituted benzoic acids with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in buffered solution. The reaction is promoted by electon-withdrawing substituents because of larger concentration of the acid anion present in the reaction mixture. On the other hand, electron-donating substituents encourage nucleophilic attack of the acid anion on the protonated carbodiimide.
