The hydrolysis of 1-(N-t-butylformimidoyl)imidazole (7a) to t-butylformamide and imidazole has been examined in the absence of buffer species at 25 deg C in water.The rate of hydrolysis was pH-independent at pH 7-14 and reaction in this region is shown to occur via HO- attack on the protonated substrate (whose pKa is 5.0; protonation site, imidazole nitrogen).Alternative mechanisms such as H2O attack on the neutral substrate and reaction via the zwitterion (15) were eliminated using solvent isotope effect, deuterium labelling, and substituent effects.Below pH 6 acid catalysis of hydrolysis is observed due to H2O reaction with the protonated substrate (pH 4-6) and with the diprotonated substrate (pH 0-4); at pH 0, t1/2 for hydrolysis is <10-2s.The N-arylformamidines (7b) and (7c) react via similar acid catalysed pathways but a new reaction (identified as HO- attack on the amidine) occurs in base, in preference to the pH independent pathways. p-Nitrophenylformamide
