The basic hydrolysis of a series of leaving-group substituted acetothiolacetates (CH3COCH2COSR) has been studied in aqueous media.Hydrolysis of N-acetyl-S-acetoacetylcysteinamine follows a kinetic ionisation curve with an inflexion corresponding to the pK of this ester as determined by spectrophotometric and electrometric titrations.The rate constant at high pH was shown to follow a Broensted relationship with βL.G. -1.13, where βL.G. is the slope of a plot of the logarithm of the rate constant versus the pKa of the conjugate acid of the leaving group.This, and other evidence from rate comparisons, activation parameters, and kinetic solvent isotope effects, indicated an E1cB hydrolytic mechanism involving unimolecular collapse of the ester enolate ions via a ketenoid transition-state.S-Acetoacetylcoenzyme-A was also hydrolysed in base by this mechanism.Direct comparison of rates of leaving group expulsion for ArS and ArO was possible by means of this unimolecular process.For a leaving group with pKL.G. 10, the oxyanion departs ca. 1 or 2 orders of magnitude faster than the thiolate anion; for pKL.G. 6.0, the advantage of oxygen over sulphur is 103-104 fold.In a direct structural comparison, PhS departs 32 times as rapidly as PhO.The contribution of steric release in the E1cB transition-state for S-t-butyl acetothiolacetate hydrolysis is discussed.The pKa values of some acetothiolacetates were measured.
