Abstract
Addition reactions of anilines (XC6H4NH2) to β-nitrostilbene (YC6H4CH=C(NO2)C6H4Y') have been investigated in acetonitrile at 30.0 oC. The magnitude of βX values (=0.11-0.34) indicates relatively earlier transition state for additions with anilines than with benzylamines. The signs of ρY and ρY' are positive with Δρ = ρYY' = 0.04, demonstrating a TS imbalance with a negative charge development on the Cβ in the TS. The signs of cross-interaction constants ρXY (<0), ρXY' (<0) and ρYY' (>0) are consistent with bond forming and breaking processes. The relatively weak normal kinetic isotope effects involving deutarated nucleophiles, kH/kD>1, suggest an early, hydrogen-bonded, 4-member cyclic TS.
