The reaction rates of 2-chloro-3,5-dinitropyridine 1 with a series of arylthiolates 2a-h in methanol have been measured at 25Β°C. The products are the corresponding 2-thioaryl-3,5-dinitropyridine 3a-h. Good Hammett correlation with value Οͺ1.19 was obtained suggesting an elimination-addition mechanism

β¦ Synopsis
The rate constants for the reactions of 4-halomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acids, the nonnitro derivatives, and their ethyl esters with arylthiolates were measured at different temperatures. It was found that the retardation in rate constants compared to benzyl halides is due to the electrostatic repulsion between the electronegative substituents (COO-and/or NO21 in the substrates and thiolate ions Good correlations between log k2 values of the acids and carbon basicities of thiolates were found while log k2 values of the esters show good straight lines with Harnrnett CT constants, pk,, and carbon basicities of arylthiolates. @ 1996 lohn Wiley &

INTRODUCTlON
The action of sodium hydroxide on 2-nitrobenzyl chloride in aqueous dioxane gave 2,2'-dinitrostilbene via carbene formed by an a-EICB mechanism as well as a mixture of cis and trans-dinitrostilbene oxide [ I I. While 2-nitrobenzyl bromide and iodide gave 2,2'-dinitrobenzylether, under the previous conditions, through an initial slow SN2 hydrolysis step followed by a faster SN2 etherification step [ l ] . The reaction of 4-halomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid ( I ) and the corresponding nonnitro derivative (2) with aqueous sodium hydroxide gave a mixture of the corresponding benzyl alcohol and/or dibenzyl ether derivative depending on the type of the halogen [2].

The kinetics of reaction of substituted O-benzoylbenzamidoximes with sodium methoxide in methanol were studied at 25 Β°C. The only reaction products are substituted benzamidoximes and methyl benzoates. The slope of the dependence of rate constant on sodium methoxide concentration gradually increases,
The kinetics of the reaction of 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine (ortho-like) and 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (para-like) with a series of aryloxide ions were studied in methanol at different temperatures. Plots of DH β versus DS β for both reactions gave good straight lines with isokinetic temperatures of 168
