First- and second-order rate components for the nucleophilic displacements of a variety of N-(primary alkyl), N-(secondary alkyl), and N-benzyl substituents from mono-, bi-, and tri-cyclic pyridine leaving groups by various nucleophiles are independent of substrate concentration, of the nature of the gegenion, and of traces of water in the solvent.Thus assumptions implicit in the reasoning of earlier papers of this series are confirmed, and the conclusion that these nucleophilic displacements can proceed by five independent mechanistic pathways is strengthened.First-order rate components are invariant with the nature of the nuclephile.Second-order rate components vary with nucleophile nucleophilicity in a way that parallels Menschutkin reactions.Activation enthalpies for first-order components are less negative than those for second-order components, in agreement with previous data.
