Abstract: | 1-Hydroxy-2-chloromethyl-1,3-dioxolane (4) and 1-hydroxy-2-dichloromethyl-1, 3-dioxolane (5) have been detected as intermediates by1H NMR spectroscopy in the hydration of respectively 2-chloromethylene-1, 3-dioxolane and 2-dichloromethylene-1, 3-dioxolane in aqueous acetonitrile. The kinetics of the breakdown of (4) and (5) into ethylene glycol monochloroacetate and monodichloroacetate have been studied by uv spectroscopy and values ofkH+,kHO-, andkH2O evaluated. It was found that the introduction of chlorosubstituents into 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1, 3-dioxolane caused a decrease inkH+ and increase inkH2O- and little change inkH2Ofor its breakdown. The mechanisms of these reactions are discussed. Present |
