Chemical reactions involving high-pressure acetylene are not easily performed in a standard laboratory setup. The risk of explosion and technical difficulties drastically complicate the equipment and greatly increase the cost. In this study, we propose th

A study on the mechanism of the thermal decomposition of α- and β-heteroatoms substituted ethyl phenyl sulfoxides was carried out using 1-chloroethyl phenyl sulfoxide (1); two diastereomeric 1-acetoxyethyl (substituted phenyl) sulfoxides (2a) and (2b); and 2-chloroethyl phenyl, 2-bromoethyl phenyl, and 2-methoxyethyl phenyl sulfoxides (3, 4, 5). The rate of pyrolysis of 1 was 4.8 times faster at 160°C than that of ethyl phenyl sulfoxide used as a reference, while those of 2a and 2b were 107 and 155 times faster, respectively. The results indicate that the lone pair of electrons on the α-heteroatoms has a larger rate acceleration effect than the electronegativity of them. The substituent effects of the phenyl group of 2a and 2b gave positive Hammett ρ-values (ρa= 0.76 and ρb= 0.80 vs. σ). Activation parameters for 2a and 2b are as follows: 2a, ΔH?= 112 kJmol-1, ΔS?= -20 JK-1mol-1; 2b, ΔH?= 107 kJmol-1, ΔS?= -29 JK-1mol-1. Large deuterium kinetic isotope effects for 1-acetoxyethyl-2,2,2-d3 phenyl sulfoxides (2ad and 2bd) were observed (kH/kD= 3.5 ～ 4.1). These results suggest that the pyrolysis of -heteroatom substituted ethyl phenyl sulfoxides proceeds via a five-membered transition state deviated to E1-like in character. On the other hand, from the results of kinetics for the pyrolysis of 3, 4, and 5, no effect by the β-halogen atoms or some deceleration effect by the β-methoxy group was observed. Thus the reaction seems to proceed via an E1-like mechanism. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group.
Convenient criterion for the distinction between electrophilic and electron transfer reactions of electron-rich alkenes

Both experimental and theoretical studies confirm that the formation of aryl vinyl ether and aryl vinyl sulfide cation radicals from the corresponding neutral substrates correlates with the Brown σ+ parameters as opposed to Hammett σ values. Peak oxidation potentials for both classes of substrates correlate preferentially with σ+, as do gas-phase ionization energies calculated by both semi-empirical and ab initio methods. In contrast, the protonation energies of the same substrates, which relate to carbocation formation, correlate preferentially with σ values, as do rates of protonation and other electrophilic additions. These observations permit a sharp distinction between electrophilic and electron transfer reactions of these two common classes of electron-rich substrates. Using this criterion, the cycloadditions of tetracyanoethylene to these substrates are found to proceed via an electrophilic mechanism, rather than by a previously proposed electron transfer mechanism.
A non-outer sphere mechanism for the ionization of aryl vinyl sulfides by triarylaminium salts
Bauld, Nathan L.,Aplin, J. Todd,Yueh, Wang,Loinaz, Ainhoa

Evidence is presented that the formation of aryl vinyl sulfide cation radicals from the corresponding neutral precursors via reaction with tris(4- bromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate in the context of a cation radical Diels-Alder addition to 1,3-cyclopentadiene does not occur via outer sphere electron transfer but by a mechanism involving strong covalent interaction between the aminium salt acting as an electrophile and the aryl vinyl sulfide substrate acting as a nucleophile.
