Abstract
The rate constants of the hydrolysis of phenylvinylsulfone were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry at various pH and a rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was obtained. The reaction mechanism of hydrolysis of phenylvinylsulfone and especially the catalytic contribution of hydroxide ion which did not study carefully before in acidic media, can be fully explained by the rate equation obtained. The rate equation reveals that: below pH 7, the reaction is initiated by the addition of water molecule to phenylvinylsulfone. At above pH 9, the overall rate constant is only dependent upon the concentration of hydroxide ion.
Phenylvinylsulfone의 가수분해 속도상수를 자외선분광기를 사용하여 구하였으며 아울러 넓은 범위에서 잘맞는 반응속도식도 얻었다. 이 식에 의하면 넓은 pH범위, 특히 종전에 잘 규명된 바 없는 산성용매 속에서의 반응 및 수산화이온의 촉매역할등도 정량적으로 잘 설명할 수 있음을 알았다. 즉 pH7 이하에서는 물의 첨가로 부터 반응이 시작됨을 알 수 있었으며 pH9 이상에서는 수산화이온만이 반응에 참여함을 알았다.
