The formation of inclusion complexes between ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin and diethylenetriamine substituted-pyridine copper(II) perchlorate; [Cu(dien)(sub-py)] $(ClO_4)_2$, were studied by spectrophotometric methods. On account of charge-transfer band(MLCT) and $^2T_2{\rightarrow}^2E$, the two high peaks were observed as an inclusion complex for the [${\beta}$-CD]$[Cu(dien)(p-Cl-py)]^{2+}$ in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum. The ${\beta}$-CD and $[Cu(dien)(sub-py)]^{2+}$ ion formed a 1:1 complex, and the formation constants were decreased with the increasing temperatures, due to weak binding energy between ${\beta}$-CD and $[Cu(dien)(sub-py)]^{2+}$ ion. This reaction was controlled by enthalpy. In a correlation of the Hammett substituent constants and formation constants for the reaction, formation constants were increased by strong binding energy in the inclusion complexes when electron donating groups were substituted in pyridine ring.

Second-order rate constants have been measured for two series of nucleophilic displacement reactions, i.e., reactions of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate with Z-substituted phenoxides and those of Y-substituted phenyl benzoates (1a-h) with 4-chlorophenoxide (4-ClPhO–) in 80 mol% $H_2O$/20 mol% DMSO at 25.0 ${\pm}\;0.1\;{^{\circ}C}$. The Br$\phi$nsted-type plot for reactions of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate with Z-substituted phenoxides exhibits an excellent linear correlation with ${\beta}_{nuc}$ = 0.72. Reactions of 1a-h with 4-chlorophenoxide result in also a linear Br$\phi$nsted-type plot with ${\beta}_{lg}$ = –0.62, a typical ${\beta}_{lg}$ value for a concerted mechanism. The Hammett plots correlated with ${\sigma}^o\;and\;{\sigma}^-$ constants show many scattered points for reactions of 1a-h with 4-chlorophenoxide. In contrast, the corresponding Yukawa-Tsuno plot exhibits an excellent linear correlation with $\rho_Y$ = 2.26 and r = 0.53, indicating that expulsion of the leaving group occurs at the rate-determining step (RDS) either in a concerted mechanism or in a stepwise pathway. However, a stepwise mechanism with leaving group departure being the RDS is excluded since the leaving Y-substituted phenoxide is less basic and a better nucleofuge than the incoming 4-ClPh$O^-$. Thus, the reactions have been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism, in which bond formation between the nucleophile and electrophilic center is more advanced than expulsion of the leaving group in the transition state on the basis of the magnitude of ${\beta}_{nuc}\;and\;{\beta}_{lg}$ values.

Second-order rate constants for the reactions of phenyl Y-substituted-phenyl carbonates 5a-g with Z-substituted-phenoxides ($k_{Z-PhO^-}$) have been measured spectrophotometrically in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. 4-Nitrophenyl phenyl carbonate (5e) is up to 235 times more reactive than 4-nitrophenyl benzoate (4e). The Br$\o$nsted-type plot for the reactions of 5e with Z-substituted-phenoxides is linear with ${\beta}_{nuc}=0.54$, which is typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through a concerted mechanism. Hammett plots correlated with ${\sigma}^o$ and ${\sigma}^-$ constants for the reactions of 5a-f with 4-chlorophenoxide exhibit highly scattered points. In contrast, the Yukawa-Tsuno plot results in an excellent linear correlation with ${\rho}_Y=1.51$ and r = 0.52, indicating that the leaving-group departure occurs at the rate-determining step (RDS). A stepwise mechanism, in which leaving-group departure occurs at RDS, has been excluded since the incoming 4-$ClPhO^-$ is more basic and a poorer nucleofuge than the leaving Y-substituted-phenoxides. Thus, the reaction has been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism. Our study has shown that the modification of the nonleaving group from benzoyl to phenyloxycarbonyl causes a change in the reaction mechanism (i.e., from a stepwise mechanism to a concerted pathway) as well as an increase in the reactivity.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions of diisopropyl chlorothiophosphate (5) with X-pyridines have been kinetically studied in MeCN at $35.0^{\circ}C$. The Hammett and Br$\ddot{o}$nsted plots for the substituent X variations in the nucleophiles show biphasic concave upwards with a break point at X = 3-Ph. The pyridinolysis rate of 5 exhibits great negative deviation from the Taft plot. A concerted $S_N2$ mechanism is proposed involving a change of the attacking direction of the X-pyridines from a frontside attack with the strongly basic pyridines to a backside attack with the weakly basic pyridines.

The kinetics of the hydrolysis of indolylacrylophenone derivatives(IA) was investigated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in 30% dioxane-$H_2O$ at 25$^{\circ}C$ Rate equations were obtained over a wide pH range. On the basis of rate equation, general base catalysis and Hammett's plot, the mechanism of hydrolysis to the (IA) were proposed: Below pH 3.0, the hydrolysis of (IA) was proportional to hydronium ion concentration, between pH 4.0${\sim}$9.0 neutral water molecule and hydroxide ion were added to carbon-carbon double bond and over pH 10.0 hydrolysis of (IA) was proportional to hydroxide ion concentration.

The kinetics of azo-coupling reaction of N-acetyl-H-acid (1-acetamino-8-hydroxynaphthalene-3, 6-disulfonic acid) with several heterocyclic diasonium compounds such as diazotiged 3-aminopyridine, 3-aminoquinoline, 8-aminoauinoline and aniline was studied. It was found that reactions proceeded at remarkably different rate. Reaction rate was in increasing order; 3-aminopyridine, 3-aminoquinoline, 8-aminoauinoline and aniline. And the activation energies were 9.62, 10.10, 10.39, 10.70 Kcal/mole, respectively. Especially, the rate constant of 3-aminopyridine was 100 times larger than that of benzene diasonium compound even in strong acidity. Hammett plot was also made of the rate constants obtained against the heterocyclic substituent constants reported in the literature. A good linear relationship was obtained and the reaction constant of N-acetyl H-acid was calculated to be 3.14.

The reaction of hexacyanoferrate (Ⅲ) with nitrotoluenes in aqueous acetic acid containing perchloric acid(1.0 M) at $50^{\circ}C$ gave the corresponding aldehyde as the major product. The order with respect to each of the reactants ― substrate, oxidant and acid ― was found to be unity. The Hammett plot yielded a ${\sigma}^+$ value of -1.30, and the kinetic isotope effect gave a $k_H/k_D$ value of 6.2. The pathway for the conversion of the nitrotoluenes to the products has been mechanistically visualized as proceeding through the benzylic radical intermediate, formed in the rate determining step of the reaction.

The rates and activation parameters for the halide $(Cl^{-}, Br^{-}, I^{-})$TeX> exchange reactions of substituted benzenesulfonyl-chloride, $XC_6H_4SO_2Cl$(X:p-MeO, H, p-Cl, p-Br, p-NO$_2l$) in dry acetone at two temperatures have been determined. It was found that the ion-pair of metal halide,$M^{+}X^{-}$, have negligible reactivity compared to free halide ions. It was also found that the nucleophilic order is $Cl^{-}>Br^{-}>I^{-}$for electron-donating substituent, and $Cl^{-}>I^{-}>Br^{-}$ for electron-withdrawing substituents. These results and convex nature of the Hammett plot are interpreted in the light of simple $S_N2$mechanism with the bond breaking becoming important for compounds with the electron withdra-wing substituents.

Second-order rate constants ($k_N$) have been measured spectrophotometrically for $S_NAr$ reactions of Y-substituted-phenoxy-2,4-dinitrobenzenes (1a-1g) with hydrazine and glycylglycine in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. Hydrazine is 14.6-23.4 times more reactive than glycylglycine. The magnitude of the ${\alpha}$-effect increases linearly as the substituent Y becomes a stronger electron-withdrawing group (EWG). The Br${\o}$nsted-type plots for the reactions with hydrazine and glycylglycine are linear with ${\beta}_{lg}=-0.21$ and -0.14, respectively, which is typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with expulsion of the leaving group occurring after rate-determining step (RDS). The Hammett plots correlated with ${\sigma}^{\circ}$ constants result in much better linear correlations than ${\sigma}^-$ constants, indicating that expulsion of the leaving group is not advanced in the transition state (TS). The reaction of 1a-1g with hydrazine has been proposed to proceed through a five-membered cyclic intermediate ($T_{III}$), which is structurally not possible for the reaction with glycylglycine. Stabilization of the intermediate $T_{III}$ through intramolecular H-bonding interaction has been suggested as an origin of the ${\alpha}$-effect exhibited by hydrazine.

A kinetic study on nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted-benzoates (7a-i) with EtOK in anhydrous ethanol at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$ is reported. The plots of pseudo-first-order rate constants ($k_{obsd}$) vs. [EtOK] curve upward. Dissection of $k_{obsd}$ into the second-order rate constants for the reactions with the dissociated $EtO^-$ and ion-paired EtOK (i.e., $k_{EtO^-}$ and $k_{EtOK}$, respectively) has revealed that the ion-paired EtOK is more reactive than the dissociated $EtO^-$. Hammett plots for the reactions of 7a-i with the dissociated $EtO^-$ and ion-paired EtOK exhibit excellent linear correlations with ${\rho}_X$ = 3.00 and 2.47, respectively. The reactions have been suggested to proceed through a stepwise mechanism in which departure of the leaving-group occurs after the RDS. The correlation of the $k_{EtOK}/k_{EtO^-}$ ratio with the ${\sigma}_X$ constants exhibits excellent linearity with a slope of -0.53. It is concluded that the ion-paired EtOK catalyzes the reaction by increasing the electrophilicity of the reaction center rather than by enhancing the nucleofugality of the leaving group.
