Item type:Publication, How the Nature of an Alpha-Nucleophile Determines a Brønsted Type-Plot and Its Reaction Pathways. An Experimental Study(2022); ;Ricardo A. TapiaCristian Suárez-Rozas<jats:p>The reactions between 2-chloro-5-nitro pyrimidine with a serie of α-nucleophile derivatives were kinetically evaluated. The kinetic study was carried out in aqueous media and the data shown an unusual split on the Brønsted type-plot, opening a controversial discussion based on reactivities and possible reaction pathways. These split Brønsted type-plots are discussed over the hypothetical transition state (TS) structures associated to concerted or stepwise mechanisms with emphasis on hydrogen bond interactions between electrophile/nucleophile pair able to determine the reactivities and the plausible reaction routes.</jats:p>15Scopus© Citations 1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Kinetics and Reaction Mechanism of Biothiols Involved in SNAr Reactions: An Experimental Study(2022); ;JazmĂn AlarcĂłn-EspĂłsito<jats:p>Few kinetic parameters, or reaction rates, are known up to date in detail about 1-chloro and 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (ClDNB and FDNB, respectively) with a series of biothiols in aqueous media. These biological nucleophiles with thiol groups have been widely used as a reference in nucleophile reactivity assays due to their prevalence and cellular abundance. The main aim of this study was to elucidate the reaction mechanism based on Brönsted-type plots and reactivity patterns of the electrophile/nucleophile pairs. A complete kinetic study was performed in terms of the comparison of Brönsted-type slope parameters (<jats:italic>β</jats:italic><jats:sub>nuc</jats:sub>) for the reactions and was used for assigning the mechanism and the rate-determining step associated with the reaction route. A mass spectrometry analysis demonstrated that the nucleophilic center of the biothiols is the -SH group and there is only one kinetic product. The kinetic study suggests that the reaction mechanism might be the borderline between concerted and stepwise pathways. An amine–enol equilibrium for the most reactive nucleophiles appears to be the main determining factor controlling the nucleophilic attack in the nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions investigated, highlighting the anionic form for these nucleophiles. This amine–enol equilibrium involves a hydrogen bond which stabilizes the intermediate species in the reaction pathway. Thus, intramolecular bonds are formed and enhance the nucleophilic strength through the contribution of the solvent surrounding the electrophile/nucleophile pairs. Finally, we highlight the importance of the formation of electrophile/nucleophile adducts that could modify structures and/or functions of biological systems with potential toxic effects. Therefore, it is essential to know all these kinetic and reactivity patterns and their incidence on other studies.</jats:p>1Scopus© Citations 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
