The rate constants for a number of exothermic displacement (SN2) reactions of the type X− + CH3Y → Y− + CH3X where X− = H−, O−, C−, F−, S−, Cl−, OH−, C2−, CN−, SH−, S2−, C2H−, NH2−, NO2−, CHF−, CH2Cl−, CH2Br−, CH3O−, CH3S−, and CH3NH− and Y = F, Cl, and Br, have been measured in the gas phase at 297 ± 2 K using the flowing after-glow technique. These gas-phase measurements provided an opportunity to determine the intrinsic nucleophilic reactivity of 'nude' anions and hence to assess the role of solvation in the kinetics of SN2 reactions proceeding in solution. Comparisons of the experimental rate constants with rate constants calculated using classical theories of capture indicate that several displacement reactions may possess large intrinsic energies of activation, [Formula: see text]. Correlations were found between apparent activation energies and the heats of reaction. These correlations provided a convenient classification of the various anion nucleophiles. Displacement was observed to compete with proton transfer in reactions involving nucleophiles of high intrinsic basicity and with hydrogen atom transfer and H2+ transfer in the reactions of the O− radical anion.

The work described in this and the following paper is a continuation of that in parts I and II, devoted to elucidation of the mechanism of the reactions of methylene with chloroalkanes, with particular reference to the reactivities of singlet and triplet methylene in abstraction and insertion processes. The products of the reaction between methylene, prepared by the photolysis of ketene, and 1-chloropropane have been identified and estimated and their dependence on reactant pressures, photolysing wavelength and presence of foreign gases (oxygen and carbon mon­oxide) has been investigated. Both insertion and abstraction mechanisms contribute significantly to the over-all reaction, insertion being relatively much more important than with chloroethane. This type of process appears to be confined to singlet methylene. If, as seems likely, there is no insertion into C—Cl bonds under our conditions (see part IV), insertion into C2—H and C3—H bonds occurs in statistical ratio, approximately. On the other hand, the chlorine substituent reduces the probability of insertion into C—H bonds in its vicinity. As in the chloroethane system, both species of methylene show a high degree of selectivity in their abstraction reactions. We find that k S Cl / k S H >7.7, k T Cl / k T H < 0.14, where the k ’s are rate constants for abstraction, and the super- and subscripts indicate the species of methylene and the type of atom abstracted, respectively. Triplet methylene is discriminating in hydrogen abstraction from 1-C 3 H 7 Cl, the overall rates for atoms attached to C1, C2, C3 being in the ratios 2.63:1:0.

Flowing afterglow measurements are reported which provide rate constants and product identifications at 298 ± 2 K for the gas-phase reactions of OH− with CH3OH, C2H5OH, CH3OCH3, CH2O, CH3CHO, CH3COCH3, CH2CO, HCOOH, HCOOCH3, CH2=C=CH2, CH3—C≡CH, and C6H5CH3. The main channels observed were proton transfer and solvation of the OH−. Hydration with one molecule of H2O was observed either to reduce the rate slightly and lead to products which are the hydrated analogues of the "nude" reaction, or to stop the reaction completely, k ≤ 10−12 cm3 molecule−1 s−1. The reaction of OH−•H2O with CH3—C≡CH showed an uncertain intermediate behaviour.

Insight Into

The objective of this work is to perform a theoretical analysis of the antioxidant properties of a series of 8-hydroxyquinolines (8-HQs) to rationalize the available experimental results and to design new potent 8-HQ derivatives. The study was carried out in gas phase and in methanol at the DFT/B3LYP/ 6-311++G(d,p) computational level. The formation of stable ArO• radicals is discussed on the basis of different mechanisms, namely, hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), single electron transfer followed by proton transfer (SET-PT), and single proton loss electron transfer (SPLET). The obtained results show that the HAT mechanism is, thermodynamically, more favoured in gas phase, whereas the SPLET pathway is more favoured in polar solvents. The calculated thermochemical descriptors allow classification of the antioxidant power of the studied compounds.

Abstract It has been shown that in kinetically first order gas phase reactions occuring under electric discharge, such as the decomposition of N2O, the application, at various initial pressures, of the same multiple of the respective starting potential ensures that the reaction occurs at the same specific rate.
