The rate constants for deuteroxide and hydroxide catalyzed H → D and D → H exchange of benzodihydrothiophene oxide (1a) and several of its deuterated analogs 1b, 1c, and 1d at 30.00 ± 0.05 °C are reported along with the rate constants for D → H exchange of deuterated benzyl methyl sulfoxides 2b and 2c. Application of the steady-state assumption to schemes involving equilibrating pyramidal anions yield equations which are used to fit experimentally determined (kf/ks)H → D and (kf/ks)D → H ratios. The analysis supports our view that exchange of the diastereotopic protons (deuterons) occurs by inversion. The inversion component contributes significantly to exchange of the "slow" proton (deuteron) of a diastereotopic pair and this accounts for the observation that (kf/ks)D → H < (kf/ks)H → D. This study establishes an upper limit of 6 kcal for the barrier to inversion of the carbanions derivable from 1 and 2, if pyramidal anions are formed.

A study of acid- and base-catalyzed hydrogen isotope exchange of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (1a) and its 3-deuteriated analogs has been carried out. We find that the kexo/kendo ratio (658 ± 66) for deuteroxide-catalyzed H → D exchange of 1a at C-3 is 7.2 ± 1.5 times greater than the kexo/kendo ratio (91 ± 9) for hydroxide-catalyzed D → H exchange of 1b. For acid-catalyzed exchange in CH3COOD(H)–D(H)Cl the rate ratios are 156 ± 20 and 29 ± 2 for H → D and D → H exchange, respectively. Equations which relate the observed selectivity kexo/kendo (kfast/kslow) to the intrinsic selectivity and the primary, secondary, and solvent KIEs are developed. The differences between the rate ratios for H → D and D → H exchange are interpreted on the basis of a significant contribution of an inversion pathway to exchange of the slow proton (deuteron). The significance of our study – it relates to the mechanism of hydrogen isotope exchange of diastereotopic protons (deuterons, tritons) of any carbon acid – is discussed.

The rates of base-catalyzed protium–deuterium exchange (α-thioenolization) of the exo and endo protons of thiocamphor (1), in 2:1 dioxane-D2O at 25.0 ± 0.5 °C, have been determined by monitoring the uptake of deuterium mass spectrometrically. The exo and endo exchange rate constants, 2.20 × 10−2 and 5.60 × 10−4 M−1 s−1, respectively, are 23.2 and 12.3 times larger than the rate constants for exo and endo exchange in camphor (2). Factors which may determine the rate enhancements are discussed.

The reaction rate of hydrogen isotope exchange between D2 and H2O catalyzed by platinum plate is studied. The exchange reaction is described with the kinetic model which is the modification of that for the exchange reaction catalyzed by alumina-supported platinum catalyst. For the comparison of experimental results with this model relative amount of the number of sites for hydrogen adsorption was estimated from the initial rate of hydrogen isotope exchange between H2 and D2 on the same surface. The results show that the kinetic model is applicable for the plate catalyst if the number of the sites for hydrogen absorption, which is very sensitive to the surface state of the catalyst, was estimated not from the macroscopic surface area but from our scheme. Keywords: hydrogen isotope exchange reaction, platinum plate as catalyst.
