✦ Synopsis
The magnitude of a-secondary deuterlum klnetlc isotope effects has been used widely as a criterion of mechanism for nucleophlllc substitution reactions at saturated carbon (1,2). Although the magnitude of the isotope effect clearly

Chorismate synthase (EC 4.6.1.4) is the shikimate pathway enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate (EPSP) to chorismate. The enzyme reaction is unusual because it involves a trans-1,4 elimination of the C-3 phosphate and the C-6 proR hydrogen and it has an absolute
Recent interest in secondary a-deuterium isotope effects on carbonyl reac-tionsle3 prompts us to present a preliminary report of our findings for hydrate and hemiacetal formation from pentanal-l-d. 4
Sumnary: Addition of phenyl radical to benzyl isocyanides gives benzonitrile and benzyl radicals, exhibiting positive Hamnett p=O.26 and notable secondary a-deuterium kinetic isotope effects. These can be rationalized by concerted bond formation/cleavage occurring with polar transition states(TS).
no side reactions, and the reaction is complete after 48 h. It was followed by IR spectroscopy by observing the complete disappearance of the azido absorption band at ? = 21 17 cm-' (KBr windows). At the end the resin-bound 8 and 9 were treated with hydrazine hydrate in methanol (1 :7) for about 6 h
