Abstract:The effect on electrophilic activity of substituents located para, ortho, and meta to the nitro group of nitrobenzenes was determined by using vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (VNS) with the carbanion of chloromethyl phenyl sulfone (1) as the model process. Values for the relative activities of substituted nitroarenes are given relative to nitrobenzene, which was taken as the standard. This process was chosen as a model reaction because it meets key criteria, such as the wide range of substituents that can be present on the nitrobenzene ring, a low sensitivity to steric hindrance, and in particular the possibility of ensuring conditions in which the overall relative rates of reaction in competitive experiments are equal to the relative rates of nucleophilic addition. The values of relative rates of addition, which were taken to be a measure of electrophilic activity, were determined by competitive experiments in which pairs of nitroarenes competed for the VNS reaction with carbanion of 1. A comprehensive set of data for effects of substituents on the electrophilic activity of nitroarenes is presented for the first time.
Keywords:carbanions  competitive experiments  electrophilic activity  nitroarenes  nucleophilic substitution
