Popis: | Rates of solvolysis of several ethyl and 2-propyl arenesulfonates having π donor leaving groups were measured in the absence of accepter and in the presence of the π acceptors 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TNB) and 2,4,7-trinitrofluorenone (TNF). With four of the nine combinations investigated, added accepter produced small but measurable rate enhancements. Ester–TNF 1:1 association constants were measured spectrophotometrically at 20, 30, and 40 °C in acetic acid for 2-propyl 4-methoxy-1-naphthalenesulfonate (3b), 4,8-dimethoxy-1-naphthalenesulfonate (4), 3,7-dimethyl-1-naphthalenesulfonate (5), and 1-pyrenesulfonate (6). From the equilibrium and kinetic data, the reactivity of the 1:1 ester–TNF complex relative to that of the uncomplexed ester (kc/ku) in acetolysis at 85.73 °C was estimated to be lessthan 4.2 and 1.4 for 3b and 4, respectively, 4.4 ± 2.0 for 5, and 2.8 ± 0.4 for 6. The value of kc/ku for 6 determined from analysis of the kinetic data alone is 2.7 ± 0.8. |
