Abstract

Elimination reactions of aryl esters of arylacetic acids 1 and 2 promoted by R2NH in MeCN have been investigated kinetically. The reactions are second-order and exhibit β= 0.44- 0.84,| βlg|= 0.41-0.50, and ρH= 2.0-3.6. Brønsted β and| βlg| decrease with the electron- withdrawing ability of the β-aryl substituent. Hammett ρH values remain nearly the same, but the| βlg| value increases as the base strength becomes weaker. Both ρH and β decrease ...
