Rates of cleavage have been measured for some X*C6H,*MMe, compounds (M = Si or Sn) in 1 :6 v/v waterdimethyl sulphoxide containing potassium hydroxide. In a plot of the logarithm of the rate constants versus the Hammett a-constants the points for some para-substituents deviate markedly from the line defined by those for the me&-substituents. There is a common pattern to these deviations and the much larger ones previously observed in cleavages of X*CBH4*SnMe3 compounds in aqueous methanolic alkali and in hydrogen exchange of X°C6H5 compounds in liquid ammonia containing potassium amide, and it is suggested that in all cases there is transfer of hydrogen from the solvent to the aromatic compound in an electrophilic attack at carbon concerted with the breaking of the C-MMe, or C-H bond under the attackof the base. Substituents with electron-releasing resonance effects are thought to assist this electrophilic attack to produce the unusual substituent effects observed. The interpretation can be extended to account for the substituent effects previously observed in base cleavage of X'C6ki4'-CIC-GeEt, bonds. In 1 :6 H,O-Me,SO a t 75', phenyltrirnethyl-silane and -stannane are cleaved a t identical rates.Aryltrimethylgermanes are much less readily cleaved.
Analog der beschriebenen Umsetzung von o‐Xylol (IV) mit Salpetersäure und Acetanhydrid zu (V) wurde auch 1,2,3‐Trimethylbenzol (I) zur Reaktion gebracht.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
