Kinetics of the reaction between 2-phenylpropionitrile and 2-chloro-5-nitrotrifluoromethylbenzene under phase-transfer catalysis

Phase-transfer catalysis (PTC) is a widely accepted methodology in organic synthesis. Although a great number of organic syntheses were reported in PTC conditions, systematic kinetic studies are scarce. In the present report, a detailed study of the kinetics of the reaction between 2-chloro-5-nitrotrifluoromethylbenzene (CNTFB) and 2-phenylpropionitrile anion (HPP-), under PTC, was performed under several conditions. The reaction was carried out either in toluene or chlorobenzene as the organic phase, in the presence of a concentrated aqueous solution of NaOH using tetraalkylammonium (Q+X-) salts as phase-transfer catalysts. The major product was 2-(4-nitro-2-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-phenylpropionitrile, and its yield depends on the experimental conditions. Different aspects of the mechanism are discussed and quantified. Kinetic data were explained by means of an interfacial mechanism that involves the deprotonation of the adsorbed nucleophile precursor followed by its catalyst-mediated extraction to the organic phase. A multicomponent Langmuir-type interface was assumed. Although the extraction of OH- by catalyst to the organic phase is usually disregarded, the formation of the substrate hydrolysis product that leads to catalyst poisoning was also investigated. The influence of this side reaction on the yield of the main product was established. A discussion about the influence of this side process on the main reaction and the operating mechanism is presented.
