Abstract

The acid dissociation constants of a number of substituted acetic acids were determined. Compounds were of the general type AC = Xβ€”BCH~2~COOH with A methyl, alkoxy, alkylthio or dimethylamino, X oxygen or sulphur, B oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen. The influence of the substituent AC(X)B upon the acidity is related to electronic (mesomeric and inductive) effects. In one instance complication by steric effects arises. The main results support the model, previously conceived for thiones with heteroatoms attached to the thiocarbonyl group: extensive mesomeric electron displacements together with appreciable contributions from inductive shifts, the latter especially noteworthy, where sulphur is concerned. In the molecules studied the thiocarbonyl group is more electron‐attracting than the carbonyl group.

Kinetics of regioselective N2 alkylation of a series of 5-(R-phenyl)tetrazoles with isopropyl alcohol has been studied in 88.2, 94.3, and 98.3% (w/w) sulfuric acid at 25". The true rate constants were evaluated, logarithms of which were found to correlate with (ro constants of phenyl substituents as
