THE MECHANISM OF THE ALCOHOLYSIS OF ALIPHATIC NITRITES: I. ALCOHOLYSIS OF 1-METHYLHEPTYL NITRITE IN ALKALINE AND NEUTRAL SOLUTION
Keyword(s):
A polarimetric study of the kinetics of the alcoholysis of 1-methylheptyl nitrite in alkaline solution has shown that the reaction rate is proportional to both the nitrite and alkoxide ion concentration. The asymmetric carbon center is not involved in the reaction. In strictly neutral solution no reaction occurs; the commonly observed "neutral" reaction is attributed to traces of acid formed in the decomposition of the nitrite ester. The mechanism of the reactions is discussed.
