Isotope effect deuterium

Many works are devoted to revealing and discussing secondary a-, P- and y-isotope effects of deuterium in solvolysis of the norbomyl cation Murr and Lee have shown that on acetolysis of 2-d-exo-norbomyl brosylate 72 the a-isotope effect observed is lower than that with the 2-d-endo-norbomyl brosylate. The authors [Pg.45]

These data, as well as the equality of a-isotope effects in the acetolysis and ethanolysis are considered by the authors to clearly testify to the formation of an intermediate nonclassical norbomyl ion in these reactions. The value of kj,/kp (25 °C) for the endo isomer is independent of the solvent and equal to 1.20 which is typical for the solvolysis of simple secondary sulphonates. This argument favours the absence of steric hindrance to ionization of 2-endo brosylate 23. [Pg.46]

Collins and Bowman however, have pointed out that the low value of the a-effect of the exo isomer is due to intramolecular rearrangement resulting in the distribution of deuterium between the 1- and 2-positions. If the isotope effect is determined at the moment when the reaction with compound 72 has only passed 3-5 % of the way it turns out to be practically the same (1.208 0.09 25 °C) as for [Pg.46]

On the other hand, when the 2-norbornyl cation is formed from its A -cyclopentenyl-ethyl precursor ( it-route ), the more flexible structure of the precursor makes it possible for the participating group (double bond) to move closer to the reaction centre which results in a decreasing a-effect for the exo isomer. [Pg.46]

As can be seen from the data below the 3-isotope effect is rather small on [Pg.46]

Another circumstance which could change the most commonly observed characteristics of the two-stage process of substitution has already been mentioned it is that in which the step in which the proton is lost is retarded because of a low concentration of base. Such an effect has not been observed in aromatic nitration ( 6.2.2), but it is interesting to note that it occurs in A -nitration. The A -nitration of A -methyl-2,4,6-trinitroaniline does not show a deuterium isotope effect in dilute sulphuric acid but does so in more concentrated solutions (> 60 % sulphuric acid kjj/kjj = 4 8). ...

For this type of reaction the value of the solvent deuterium isotope effect is often a conclusive argument for the proposed mechanism 16). Rate measurements of 1 in acetic acid-acetate buffers in light and heavy water resulted in an isotope effect ktiiO lkozo of 2.5, and A oac/ doac of 9. A ratedetermining proton transfer to the /3-carbon atom of the enamine has been proposed and accounts for the experimental results I6-18 Eq. (5). [Pg.106]

A second piece of evidence in support of the E2 mechanism is provided by a phenomenon known as the deuterium isotope effect. For reasons that we won t go into, a carbon-hydrogen bond is weaker by about 5 kj/mol (1.2 kcal/mol) than the corresponding carbon-rfaiiferiwm bond. Thus, a C-H bond is more easily broken than an equivalent C-D bond, and the rate of C-H bond cleavage is faster. For instance, the base-induced elimination of HBv from l-bromo-2-phenylethane proceeds 7.11 times as fast as the corresponding... [Pg.386]

Much evidence has been obtained in support of the El mechanism. For example, El reactions show first-order kinetics, consistent with a rate-limiting spontaneous dissociation process, l- urthermore, El reactions show- no deuterium isotope effect because rupture of the C—H (or C—D) bond occurs after the rate-limiting step rather than during it. Thus, we can t measure a rate difference between a deuterated and nondeuterated substrate. [Pg.392]

In the El reaction, C-X bond-breaking occurs first. The substrate dissociates to yield a carbocation in the slow rate-limiting step before losing H+ from an adjacent carbon in a second step. The reaction shows first-order kinetics and no deuterium isotope effect and occurs when a tertiary substrate reacts in polar, nonbasic solution. [Pg.397]

For allyl acetate a significant deuterium isotope effect supports the hydrogen abstraction mechanism (Scheme 6,31).183 Allyl compounds with weaker CTT-X bonds (113 X=SR, S02R, Bi etc.) may also give chain transfer by an addition-fragmentation mechanism (Section 6.2.3). [Pg.319]

The deuterium isotope effect is thought to arise from the effect on the equilibrium position of this A-nitrosation. This is also the case for the diazotization of aniline, but the isotope effect is larger, because two deprotonations are involved in the kinetics. [Pg.53]

Important additional evidence for aryl cations as intermediates comes from primary nitrogen and secondary deuterium isotope effects, investigated by Loudon et al. (1973) and by Swain et al. (1975 b, 1975 c). The kinetic isotope effect kH/ki5 measured in the dediazoniation of C6H515N = N in 1% aqueous H2S04 at 25 °C is 1.038, close to the calculated value (1.040-1.045) expected for complete C-N bond cleavage in the transition state. It should be mentioned, however, that a partial or almost complete cleavage of the C — N bond, and therefore a nitrogen isotope effect, is also to be expected for an ANDN-like mechanism, but not for an AN + DN mechanism. [Pg.169]

The deuterium isotope effect for each hydrogen atom ortho to the diazonio group ( H/ D = 1.22, Swain et al., 1973b) is the largest secondary aromatic hydrogen isotope effect yet observed. It is comparable to those observed for a-deuterium in reactions involving carbocation formation from secondary aliphatic esters. Ob-... [Pg.169]

If the deuterium isotope effect on the rearrangement rate ( H/ D3)r is larger than unity and is approximately equal to that on the rate of dediazoniation ( H/ D3)S, it can be concluded that the ion-molecule pair 8.13 is the more likely intermediate for the rearrangement reaction. On the other hand, an isotope effect on the rearrangement rate that is smaller than or equal to unity would indicate the involvement of the benzenespirodiazirine cation 8.17 as an intermediate. [Pg.174]

Challis and Rzepa (1975) observed kinetic deuterium isotope effects in the azo coupling of 2-methyl-4,6-di-tert-butylindole (12.139) and its anion. The origin of this effect must also be attributed to steric hindrance of the proton transfer step in the substitution proper, since 2-deuterated methylindole and unsubstituted indole (Binks and Ridd, 1957) do not give isotope effects. [Pg.357]

The secondary a-deuterium isotope effects on azo coupling reactions are small, i.e., km/kiv is very close to unity. For the reaction of the 4-nitrobenzenediazonium ion with the trianion of l-D-2-naphthol-6,8-disulfonic acid catalyzed by pyridine, km/kiv = 1.06 0.04 (Hanna et al., 1974). [Pg.361]

A true intramolecular proton transfer in the second step of an azo coupling reaction was found by Snyckers and Zollinger (1970a, 1970b) in the reaction of the 8-(2 -pyridyl)-2-naphthoxide ion (with the transition state 12.151). This compound shows neither a kinetic deuterium isotope effect nor general base catalysis, in contrast to the sterically similar 8-phenyl-2-naphthoxide ion. Obviously the heterocyclic nitrogen atom is the proton acceptor. [Pg.362]

Penton and Zollinger (1979, 1981 b) reported that this could indeed be the case. The coupling reactions of 3-methylaniline and A,7V-dimethylaniline with 4-methoxy-benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate in dry acetonitrile showed a number of unusual characteristics, in particular an increase in the kinetic deuterium isotope effect with temperature. C-coupling occurs predominantly (>86% for 3-methylaniline), but on addition of tert-butylammonium chloride the rate became much faster, and triazenes were predominantly formed (with loss of a methyl group in the case of A V-di-methylaniline). Therefore, the initial attack of the diazonium ion is probably at the amine N-atom, and aminoazo formation occurs via rearrangement. [Pg.395]

Both of these reported kinetic hydrogen-deuterium isotope effects are disturbingly small, yet they are probably too large to be considered secondary isotope effects. These results lend support to the intermediate complex hypothesis, but they can be accommodated equally well by all three of the mechanisms that have been considered. These results, therefore, afford no basis for discrimination among the possible mechanisms. [Pg.420]

It is claimed that the limiting value of k bs, 2.81 x 10" sec-1, represents the rate coefficient for the rearrangement reaction above (k,). The ring deuterium isotope effect kH kD was re-determined for this individual rate coefficient for rearrangement by finding the limiting value in the presence of added N-methylaniline and was found to be 2.4 at two different acidities, as compared with 1.7 for the ratio of the observed composite rate coefficients, as expected, since no isotope effect would be predicted for the de-nitrosation step. [Pg.459]

Deuterium isotope effects have been found even where it is certain that the C—H bond does not break at all in the reaction. Such effects are called secondary isotope effectsf" the term primary isotope effect being reserved for the type discussed previously. Secondary isotope effects can be divided into a and P effects. In a P secondary isotope effect, substitution of deuterium for hydrogen p to the position of bond breaking slows the reaction. An example is solvolysis of isopropyl bromide ... [Pg.298]

For each catalyst, the mechanism for one direction is the exact reverse of the other, by the principle of microscopic reversibility. As expected from mechanisms in which the C—H bond is broken in the rate-determining step, substrates of the type RCD2COR show deuterium isotope effects (of 5) in both the basic- and the acid -catalyzed processes.

The solvent deuterium isotope effect for hydration of 4a and CH3C=C-0CH=CHCH3 were A Hjo/ DjO =2.13 and h o/ DjO" 1-90, respectively (8, 6). No deuterium was incorporated at the acetylenic position in 4a when this compound was reisolated after partial hydration in D2 O. [Pg.207]
