An efficient strategy for the construction of aryl ethers using aryl fluorides and silyl ethers is described. This protocol uses a sub-stoichiometric amount of silicon-based reagent and proceeds under milder conditions than previously reported reactions of this type. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

A versatile synthetic protocol for benzyl phenyl ether preparation via O-alkylation of phenolic oxygen with readily available benzyl derivatives was demonstrated. The newly designed procedure was carried out using an eco-friendly medium, room-temperature ionic liquid (choline hydroxide), under metal- and base-catalyst-free aerobic conditions. The reaction platform was also successfully applied to phenol protection strategy.

A kinetic study on SNAr reactions of 1-(4-nitrophenoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzene (1a) with various anionic nucleophiles in 80 mol% water-20 mol% DMSO at 25.0 °C is reported. The Bronsted-type plot for the reaction of 1a with a series of substituted phenoxides and HOO- results in an excellent linear correlation with βnuc = 1.17. However, OH- exhibits dramatic negative deviation from the Bronsted-type plot, while N3-, C6H5S-, and butane-2,3-dione monoximate (Ox-) deviate positively from linearity. HOO- is 680-fold more reactive than OH- but does not exhibit the α-effect. In contrast, Ox- is 166-fold more reactive than isobasic 4-Cl-C6H4O- and exhibits the α-effect. Differential solvation effects have been suggested to be responsible for the α-effect in this study, i.e., Ox- exhibits the α-effect, since it is 5.7 kcal/mol less strongly solvated than 4-Cl-C6H4O- in the reaction medium, while HOO- does not show the α-effect due to a strong requirement for partial desolvation before nucleophilic attack. The highly enhanced reactivity of polarizable N3- and C6H5S- and extremely decreased reactivity of nonpolarizable OH- are in accord with the hard-soft acid and base principle.

Second-order rate constants (kN3-) for SNAr reactions of 1-(Y-substituted-phenoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzenes (2a-2h) with (Formula presented.) in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C have been measured spectrophotometrically. The Bronsted-type plot is linear with β1g=-0.38. The Hammett plots correlated with (Formula presented.) constants exhibit highly scattered points. In contrast, the Yukawa-Tsuno plot results in an excellent linear correlation with ρY = 1.02 and r = 0.51, indicating that a negative charge develops partially on the O atom of the leaving Y-substituted-phenoxy moiety in the transition state. Accordingly, the reactions have been concluded to proceed through a stepwise mechanism, in which expulsion of the leaving group occurs in the rate-determining step. Comparison of kN3- with the kOH- values reported previously for the corresponding reactions with OH has revealed that (Formula presented.) is only 6- to 26-fold than OH toward substrates 2a-2h, although the former is over 11 pKa units less basic than the latter. Solvation and polarizability effects have been suggested to be responsible for the unusual reactivity shown by (Formula presented.) and OH. Effects of changing nucleophile from OH to (Formula presented) on reaction mechanism and reactivity are discussed in detail.

Second-order rate constants (kN) have been measured spectrophotometrically for SNAr reactions of Ysubstituted-phenoxy-2, 4-dinitrobenzenes (1a-1g) with hydrazine and glycylglycine in 80 mol % H 2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. Hydrazine is 14.6-23.4 times more reactive than glycylglycine. The magnitude of the α-effect increases linearly as the substituent Y becomes a stronger electron-withdrawing group (EWG). The Bronsted-type plots for the reactions with hydrazine and glycylglycine are linear with βlg = -0.21 and -0.14, respectively, which is typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with expulsion of the leaving group occurring after rate-determining step (RDS). The Hammett plots correlated with so constants result in much better linear correlations than s- constants, indicating that expulsion of the leaving group is not advanced in the transition state (TS). The reaction of 1a-1g with hydrazine has been proposed to proceed through a five-membered cyclic intermediate (TIII), which is structurally not possible for the reaction with glycylglycine. Stabilization of the intermediate TIII through intramolecular H-bonding interaction has been suggested as an origin of the α-effect exhibited by hydrazine.

A kinetic study is reported for the SNAr reaction of 1-Y-substituted- phenoxy-2,4-dinitrobenzenes (1a-1h) with OH- in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. The second-order rate constant (kOH-) increases as the substituent Y in the leaving group changes from an electron-donating group (EDG) to an electronwithdrawing group (EWG). The Bronsted-type plot for the reactions of 1a-1h is linear with βlg = -0.16, indicating that the reactivity of substrates 1a-1h is little affected by the leaving-group basicity. A linear Bronsted-type plot with βlg = -0.3 ± 0.1 is typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through a stepwise mechanism in which formation of a Meisenheimer complex is the rate-determining step (RDS). The Hammett plot correlated with σY o constants results in a much better correlation than that correlated with σY - constants, implyng that no negative charge is developing on the O atom of the leaving group (or expulsion of the leaving group is not advanced at all in the TS). This excludes a possibility that the SNAr reaction of 1a-1h with OH- proceeds through a concerted mechanism or via a stepwise pathway with expulsion of the leaving group being the RDS. Thus, the current reactions have been concluded to proceed through a stepwise mechanism in which expulsion of the leaving group occurs rapidly after the RDS.

A kinetic study is reported for SNAr reactions of 1-(Y-substituted-phenoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzenes (1a-1h) with amines in MeCN. The plots of pseudo-first-order rate constant versus amine concentration curve upward, indicating that the reactions are catalyzed by a second amine molecule. The Br?nsted-type plots for the reaction of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,4- dinitrobenzene (1a) with secondary amines are linear with βnuc = 1.10 and 0.85 for the uncatalyzed and catalyzed reactions, respectively, while the Yukawa-Tsuno plots for the reactions of 1a-1h with piperidine result in excellent linear correlations with ρY = 1.85 and r = 0.27 for the uncatalyzed reaction and ρY = 0.73 and r = 0.23 for the catalyzed reaction. The catalytic effect decreases with increasing amine basicity or electron-withdrawing ability of the substituent Y in the leaving group. Activation parameters calculated from the rate constants measured at five different temperatures for the catalyzed reaction of 1a with piperidine are ΔH? = 0.38 kcal/mol and ΔS? = -55.4 cal/(mol K). The catalyzed reaction from a Meisenheimer complex (MC ±) is proposed to proceed through a concerted mechanism with a cyclic transition-state rather than via a stepwise pathway with an anionic intermediate, MC-. Deuterium kinetic isotope effects provide further insight into the nature of the concerted transition state.

We report here the first observation of alkali-metal ion catalysis and inhibition in SNAr reactions. The plot of kobsd versus [alkali-metal ethoxide] exhibits downward curvature for the reactions of 1-(4-nitrophenoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzene with EtOLi, EtONa, and EtOK, but upward curvature for the corresponding reaction with EtOK in the presence of 18-crown-6-ether (18C6). Dissection of kobsd into the second-order rate constants for the reactions with the dissociated EtO- and the ion-paired EtOM (i.e., k EtO - and kEtOM, respectively) has revealed that the reactivity increases in the order EtOLi-+, Na+, and K+ ions but is catalyzed by 18C6 K+ ion. The reactions of 1-(Y-substituted-phenoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzenes have been proposed to proceed through a stepwise mechanism, in which expulsion of the leaving group occurs after the rate-determining step based on the kinetic result that σo constants exhibit a much better Hammett correlation than σ- constants. Alkali-metal ion catalysis or inhibition has been discussed in terms of differential stabilization of ground-state and transition-state complexes through a qualitative energy profile. A π-complexed transition-state structure is proposed to account for the kinetic results.

The reactions of the title compounds with phenoxides, secondary alicyclic (SA) amines, and pyridines, in 44 wt% ethanol-water, at 25°C and an ionic strength of 0.2 M, were subjected to kinetic and product studies. From analytical techniques (HPLC and NMR), two pathways were detected (nucleophilic attack at the phosphoryl center and at the C-1 aromatic carbon) for the reactions of all the nucleophiles with the phosphate (2) and for the pyridinolysis of the thionophosphate (1). Only aromatic nucleophilic substitution was found for the reactions of 1 with phenoxides and SA amines. For the dual reactions, the nucleophilic rate constants (kN) were separated in two terms: documentclass{article}usepackage{amssymb} pagestyle{empty}begin{document}k-{rm N}^{rm P}end{document} and documentclass{article}usepackage{amssymb}pagestyle{empty}begin{document}k-{ rm N}^{{rm Ar}}end{document}, which are the rate constants for the corresponding electrophilic centers. The absence of a break in the Bronsted-type plots for the attack at P is consistent with concerted mechanisms. The Bronsted slopes, βAr 0.32-0.71, for the attack at the aromatic C-1, are in agreement with stepwise mechanisms where formation of a Meisenheimer complex is the rate-determining step. 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ligand-free solid-supported nano and microparticles of Pd(0) (SS-Pd) were used as a heterogeneous catalyst in carbon-heteroatom bond formation reactions. Nitro substituted aryl halides reacted with oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen nucleophiles to afford the corresponding products in good yields. A one-pot sequential cross coupling and nitro-reduction was also performed using the same SS-Pd catalyst to access amine substituted carbon-heteroatomic molecules. In addition, SS-Pd could be recycled up to seven runs without a significant loss of catalytic activity.

The second-order rate constants (k1ArO,k1Ox for substitutions of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) by a series of phenoxide and oximate nucleophiles have been measured in aqueous solution at 25 °C, using both a potentiometric procedure involving the use of a fluoride ion selective electrode (FISE) and a classical spectrophotometric procedure. While the rate data for the phenoxide ions conform to a linear Broensted plot with a slope (βNu = 0.71) fitting the 0.5-0.7 range commonly found for SNAr reactions, those for the various oximates studied do not define a meaningful linear plot. Interestingly, the observed variations in k1Ox reveal a tendency of the reactivity of oximates of pKa > 7.5-8 to level off rapidly, a situation reminiscent of that encountered in other nucleophilic reactions of these species at carbonyl and phosphonyl centres. Our current finding reinforces the idea of a general oximate behaviour pattern originating from an especially strong need for partial desolvation before nucleophilic attack, i.e., asynchronicity or TS imbalance. A major consequence of the observed levelling off is that the extra reactivity reflecting the α character of oximate nucleophiles decreases significantly in magnitude on going from weakly basic oximates (k1Ox/k1ArO ≈ 100) to strongly basic ones (k1Ox/k 1ArO ≈ 10). On the basis of the k1Ox/k1ArO ratio measured at low pKa, the α-effect associated with the SNAr substitution of DNFB is of the same order as that measured for other reactions of oximates at sp2-carbon centres.

Systematic synthetic studies have been performed for the reaction of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) with hydroxide, iodide and aryl (phenyl, p-cresyl) oxide ions in oil-in-water microemulsions at 50 deg C.The n-octane-in-water microemulsion systems are stabilized by a chemodegradable trimethylammonium bromide (I) and 1-butanol as cosurfactant.A successful preparative approach has been also elaborated for the reaction of DNCB with n-hexylamine in microemulsion of surfactant I where the amine acts as a reagent and a cosurfactant.In all the studied systems the products have been isolated from the microemulsion medium in approx. 85-95percent yield without unfavourable processes as foaming and emulsification.

A comparative kinetic study of the reaction of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitronaphthalene, 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine and 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine with phenoxide, 1-naphthoxide and 2-naphthoxide ions was performed in methanol solution.Rate constants at five temperatures and Arrhenius parameters have been determined for all reactions.

Solid-liquid PTC without added solvent efficiently promotes SNAr reactions of a variety of anionic nucleophiles generated in situ.This methodology is applied with success to some examples concerning non-activated aromatic systems.TDA-1 is the most effective catalyst.

In the title reaction at different temperatures (30-45 deg C) the rates have been measured as a function of free .A linear relationship is found between the observed second order rate coefficient and the ratio /.This has been attributed to concurrent and consecutive methanolysis by methoxide ions arising from the possible proton exchange between methanol and phenoxide ion.The thermodynamic parameters of activation of the reaction of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene with aryl oxides and methoxide anions have been calculated.From the kinetic results it is possible to calculate the equilibrium constant of the reaction: CH3OH + ArO(-) CH3O(-) + ArOH

Kinetic studies have been carried out of the reactions of 15 nucleophiles with 2,4-dinitrophenyl acetate and 14 nucleophiles with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene in 52percent (w/w) methanol at 25 deg C.The rate constant values obtained and literature data have been treated by the factor analysis.It has been found that the description of nucleophilicity at least needs two factors.The nucleophiles studied are divided into two groups (ionic and nitrogen-containing ones).In each group, the nucleophilic properties are affected by linear combination of both factors.

Aromatic ethers or polyethers are prepared by reacting an organic halide such as a hydrocarbon halide with an aryl lower alkyl carbonate in the presence of an initiator.

The possibility of aromatic nucleophilic substitution in liquid ammonia was investigated for the case of the reaction of p-nitrochlorobenzene, 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, hexafluorobenzene, bromopentafluorobenzene, pentafluorobenzene, and octafluoronaphthalene with a series of charged nucleophiles (potassium hydroxide and sulphite, alcoholates, sodium azide, thiophenolate, phenolate, and sulfide) at -70 to -33 deg C.It was shown that alkyl ethers of p-nitrophenol, phenyl p-nitrophenyl sulfide, 2,4-dinitrophenyl azide, polyfluorinaqted phenols, and their ethers can be obtained with good yields.Comparisons of the results with published data on the rate of the same reactions in other solvents shows that liquid ammonia is highly effective as a solvent for aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions and in some cases makes it possible to avoid side processes.
