Evidence consistent with a stepwise elimination–addition process for hydrolysis and aminolysis of aryl toluene-α-sulphonates
Abstract
The hydrolysis and aminolysis of substituted phenyl toluene-α-sulphonates possess a stepwise elimination–addition mechanism (E1cB) involving a sulphene intermediate; the E1cB pathway for the hydrolysis of 5-nitro-2-hydroxytoluene-α-sulphonic acid sultone is sterically suppressed.
