The "dimer nucleophile mechanism" for reactions with rate-determining first step: Derivation of the whole kinetic law and further treatment of kinetic results

Overwhelming evidence has been previously reported for the existence of the so-called "dimer nucleophile mechanism" in aromatic nucleophilic substitutions by amines in aprotic solvents, for which the most prominent feature is the fourth-order kinetics (third order in amine) that has been o...

description Overwhelming evidence has been previously reported for the existence of the so-called "dimer nucleophile mechanism" in aromatic nucleophilic substitutions by amines in aprotic solvents, for which the most prominent feature is the fourth-order kinetics (third order in amine) that has been observed with many different substrate-nucleophile systems, especially those in which departure of the nucleofuge is the rate-determining step. The mechanism has been confirmed by several other features, although other alternative mechanisms were suggested to explain the fourth-order kinetics, no one has been able to explain the other above-mentioned features. The present paper affords additional experimental evidence and derivation of the kinetic expressions for reactions with good nucleofugues, where the first step is rate determining.
