Acid Catalyzed

In aqueous sulfuric acid, aliphatic N-nitro amines decompose to N2O and alcohols. An excess acidity analysis of the observed rate constants for the reaction shows that free carbocations are not formed. The reaction is an acid-catalyzed SN2 displacement from the protonated aci-nitro tautomer, the nucleophile being a water molecule at acidities below 82–85% H2SO4, and a bisulfate ion at higher acidities. Bisulfate is the poorer nucleophile by a factor of about 1000. Twelve compounds were studied, of which results obtained for nine at several different temperatures enabled calculation of activation parameters for both nucleophiles. The reaction appears to be mainly enthalpy controlled. The intercept standard-state rate constants are well correlated by the σ* values for the alkyl groups; the slopes are negative, with a more negative value for the slower bisulfate reaction. Interestingly the m≠m* slopes also correlate with σ*, although the scatter is bad. Key words: N-nitro amines, excess acidity, bisulfate, nucleophiles, acid-catalyzed, kinetics.

α-Methylstyrene and nine ortho-substituted analogs have been synthesized and the kinetics of their acid-catalyzed hydration in aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid at 25 °C have been investigated. The kinetic acidity function HS has been constructed from the dependence of the observed rate constants kobs on the sulfuric acid concentration. The catalytic rate constants of the acid-catalyzed hydration kortho have been calculated as well. The identical shape of the kinetic acidity functions for ortho- and para-derivatives confirms what the consistent mechanism A-SE2 of the acid-catalyzed hydration has already proved for the corresponding para-derivatives. The A-SE2 mechanism involves a rate-determining proton transfer of the hydrated proton to the substrate. From the dependence of the catalytic rate constants of the ortho-derivatives on the catalytic rate constants of the para-derivatives, it is seen that the logarithm of the catalytic rate constant for hydrogen as a substituent is markedly out of the range of the other substituents and, simultaneously, that the ortho-derivatives react significantly slower than the corresponding para-derivatives. In correlation with the substitent constants σp+, a reaction constant of ρ+ = –1.45 have been found. The constant is, in absolute value, considerably smaller than that for para-derivatives (ρ+ = –3.07). In parallel, the steric effects are enforced more significantly for the monoatomic substituents (slope of the Charton’s constants 3.92) than for substituents including more atoms (slope of the Charton’s constants 2.09). A small value of the reaction constant ρ+ has been elucidated due to the lower conjugation between the reaction centre and the benzene ring as a consequence of the geometric twist of the reaction centre out of the main aromatic plane accompanied by fading mesomeric interaction between the reaction centre and the substituents attached to the benzene ring. The isopropyl group in the carbocation is twisted less out of the aromatic plane for the monoatomic substituents and, therefore, also a small difference in the bulk of substituents has considerable steric influence on the conjugation between the carbocation and the benzene ring bearing substituents. On the contrary, the isopropyl group in the carbocations with polyatomic substituents is twisted to such a degree that changes in the bulk of substituents affect the resonant stabilization negligibly. Similar conclusions were also deduced from the correlations of the substitution constants σI and σR+.

The decomposition kinetics has been measured of fourteen 3-acetyl-1,3-bis(subst. phenyl)triazenes in 40% (v/v) ethanol and sulphuric acid. The kinetic acidity function and catalytic rate constants have been determined from the rate constants observed. Mechanism has been suggested for the general acid-catalyzed solvolysis from comparison of the course of the kinetic acidity function and H0 function and from the reaction constant of the Hammett equation.

Pretreatment Conditions

Biochemical conversion of wheat straw was investigated using hydrothermal pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, and microbial fermentation. Pretreatment conditions that were compared included autocatalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 160, 175, 190, and 205 °C and sulfuric-acid-catalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 160 and 190 °C. The effects of using different pretreatment conditions were investigated with regard to (i) chemical composition and enzymatic digestibility of pretreated solids, (ii) carbohydrate composition of pretreatment liquids, (iii) inhibitory byproducts in pretreatment liquids, (iv) furfural in condensates, and (v) fermentability using yeast. The methods used included two-step analytical acid hydrolysis combined with high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC), HPLC, ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-triple quadrupole-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-QqQ-MS), and pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). Lignin recoveries in the range of 108–119% for autocatalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 205 °C and sulfuric-acid-catalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment were attributed to pseudolignin formation. Xylose concentration in the pretreatment liquid increased with temperature up to 190 °C and then decreased. Enzymatic digestibility was correlated with the removal of hemicelluloses, which was almost quantitative for the autocatalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 205 °C. Except for the pretreatment liquid from the autocatalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 205 °C, the inhibitory effects on Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast were low. The highest combined yield of glucose and xylose was achieved for autocatalyzed hydrothermal pretreatment at 190 °C and the subsequent enzymatic saccharification that resulted in approximately 480 kg/ton (dry weight) raw wheat straw.

Abstract We describe a simple, highly reproducible kinetic technique for precisely measuring temperature in spectrophotometric systems having reaction cells that are inaccessible to conventional temperature probes. The method is based on the temperature dependence of pseudo-first-order rate constants for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of N-o-tolyl-D-glucosylamine. Temperatures of reaction cuvette contents are measured with a precision of +/- 0.05 degrees C (1 SD).

In the reaction of thieno[2,3c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VI) with 1-methyl-4-piperidylmagnesium chloride 7-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl)thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VIII) is formed in addition to the expected amino alcohol VII. The title compound I was obtained by the acid catalyzed dehydration of the pure alcohol VII. Compound I (pipethiadene) has outstanding antihistamine, antiserotonin, antireserpine and anticataleptic activity and was recommended to clinical trials as a potential antimigraine agent. For pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies there were prepared the NC2H3 analogue of pipethiadene IV and further, as potential metabolites, the demethyl analogue III, S-oxide X, demethyl S-oxide XI, N-oxide XIII and N,S-dioxide XIV. The Witting reaction of the ketone VI with 3-dimethylaminopropylidenetriphenylphosphorane resulted in a mixture of geometric isomers of 4-(3-dimethylamino-propylidene)-4,9-dihydrothieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin with the strongly predominating Z-isomer XVI which was isolated from the mixture by crystallization of the hydrogen maleate. The mixture with the predominating Z-isomer XVI was converted by the treatment with 80% sulfuric acid and dilution with water to a mixture with the predominating E-isomer XV (dithiadene) which was isolated by crystallization of the hydrogen sulfate. Some further new thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin derivatives were synthesized as potential intermediates.

Rate constants have been obtained for the acid-catalyzed N–H exchange of N-methyl, 2,N-dimethyl, and 2,4,6,N-tetramethylbenzamide and the acid-catalyzed isomerization of the three corresponding N,N-dimethylbenzamides. The ratio [Formula: see text] increases significantly with increased number of ortho methyl substituents. This is explained in terms of a suggestion of Perrin, that C—N bond rotation is not completely free in the N-protonated amide, since it must compete with a diffusion limited deprotonation reaction. The isomerization reaction, which requires such a rotation, is therefore slowed by ortho methyl substituents which hinder rotation, relative to the exchange reaction, which does not require rotation.
