Abstract
Equilibrium and rate constants for the formation in water of spiro-complexes from four ring-activated aromatic glycol ethers are reported. Values of the rate constants K–1 for opening of the dioxolan ring of these complexes are much higher than those for the expulsion of base from non-cyclic analogues. This may indicate ring strain in the spiro-complexes.
