A kinetic study on nucleophilic substitution reactions of 2,4-dinitrophenyl X-substituted-cinnamates (1a-1f) and Y-substituted-phenyl cinnamates (2a-2g) with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in MeCN at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C is reported. The Br?nsted-type pl

Second-order rate constants (kN) have been measured spectrophotometrically for the nucleophilic displacement reactions of 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted-cinnamates (4a-4e) and Y-substituted-phenyl cinnamates (5a-5e) with Z-substituted-phenoxide anions in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ±0.1 °C. The Hammett plot for the reactions of 4a-4e with 4-chlorophenoxide (4-ClPhO.) consists of two intersecting straight lines, which might be taken as a change in the rate-determining step (RDS). However, it has been concluded that the nonlinear Hammett plot is not due to a change in the RDS but is caused by stabilization of the ground state of substrates possessing an electron-withdrawing group in the cinnamoyl moiety through resonance interactions, since the Yukawa-Tsuno plot exhibits an excellent linear correlation with ρX = 0.89 and r = 0.58. The Bronsted-type plot for the reactions of 4-nitrophenyl cinnamate (4c) with Z-substituted-phenoxides is linear with βnuc = 0.76. The Bronsted-type plot for the reactions of Y-substituted-phenyl cinnamates (5a-5d) with 4-chlorophenoxides (4-ClPhO.) is also linear with βlg =.0.72. The Hammett plot correlated with σ-. constants for the reactions of 5a-5d results in a much better linear correlation than that correlated with σo constants, indicating that a partial negative charge develops on the O atom of the leaving aryloxide. Thus, the reactions have been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism.

Figure presented The ester bond is one of the most common structural motifs found in nature. Apart from the condensation between an acid and an alcohol, transesterifications represent another mechanistic alternative for the preparation of this compound class. The present paper summarizes our most recent investigations in this field, using nucleophilic iron complexes as catalysts for transesterifications under neutral conditions. This new type of metal catalyst complements the existing methodologies, which rely on Lewis acidic metal complexes. Investigations on scope and limitations, stereochemical course, and chemoselectivities will be presented.
