Abstract

Experimental evidence for the existence of M+−SN1 and M+−SN2 mechanisms of the heterolysis of primary alkyl iodides in water with electrophilic assistance by Ag and Hg(II) complexes has been obtained. Rate constants vary in the sequences: CH3I<CH3CH2I≅(CH3)2CHCH2I≅(CH3)3CCH2I for M+−SN1 and CH3I<CH3CH2I>(CH3)2CHCH2I≫(CH3)3CCH2I for M+−SN2.

Abstract

Получены экспериментальные доказательства существования M+−SN1 и M+−SN2 механизмов гетеролиза первичных алкилиодидов в воде при эелктрофильном содействии комплексами серебра и ртути (II). Установлено, что константы скорости изменяются в рядах: CH3I<CH3CH2I≅(CH3)2CHCH2I≅=(CH3)3CCH2I для M+−SN1 маршрутов и CH3I<CH3CH2I>(CH3)2CHCH2I≫ ≫(CH3)3CCH2I для M+−SN2 маршрутов.
