Abstract

Pseudo‐first‐order rate constants (k~obs~) for tertiary amine (DABCO and Me~3~N) buffer‐catalyzed cyclization of N′‐morpholino‐N‐(2′‐methoxyphenyl)phthalamide (1) to N‐(2′‐methoxyphenyl)phthalimide (2) reveal saturation (nonlinear) plots of k~obs~ versus [Buf]~T~ (total tertiary amine buffer concentration) at a constant pH. Such plots at different pH have been attributed to the presence of a reactive intermediate (T^−^) formed by tertiary amine buffer‐catalyzed intramolecular nucleophilic addition of the secondary amide nitrogen to the carbonyl carbon of the tertiary amide group of 1. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
