✦ Synopsis


The kinetics of solvolysis of the title compound (QAc) in undried DMSO-ds to give 4-(1ethoxycarbonyl-l-cyano)methylquinoline (QH) and HOAc a t ambient temperature were investigated by 'H nmr spectrometry. With a limited excess of water the solvolysis follows a three-step process of QAc + HzO 3 QH + HOAc, QAc + HOAc 2 QH + AcpO, and AczO + H20 3 2 HOAc, where kz > kl and k 3 < kl. Addition of pyridine-%5 to the reaction mixture markedly catalyzes the overall solvolysis, while addition of CF3C02D to the reaction mixture simplifies the kinetics to pseudo first-order in [QAc] with k = 4.3 x min-I.
