Abstract: | Primary and secondary deuterium kinetic isotope effects have been measured for elimination of LCl (L = H or D) from some substituted 1,2-diaryl-1-chloroethanes. Although changes in these effects are in agreement with theoretical predictions, the high values of (EH-ED)β and the significantly low AH/AD may suggest that either proton tunnelling or an internal return mechanism is complicating this E2 elimination. |
