Abstract

Kinetics of the reaction of 4-nitrobenzoic acid with ammonia, catalyzed by the system constituted by boric acid and PEG-400 poly(ethylene glycol), was studied. A catalysis mechanism was suggested, which consists in original synthesis of incomplete polyethylene glycol borate esters, formation on their basis of 4-nitrobenzoic acid borate esters, and their further amidation with ammonia.
