Gas phase anionic ipso substitution reactions of some alkyl phenyl ethers

It is shown by 18O labelling that phenoxide anions are formed both by an SN2 and a nucleophilic aromatic substitution mechanism in the reaction of OH- with methyl phenyl ether. These mechanisms are of minor importance in the ethyl phenyl ether system where phenoxide anions are generated almost exclusively by an E2 mechanism.
