Second-order rate constants (kN) for nucleophilic displacement reactions of phenyl Y-substituted phenyl carbonates (7a-7l) with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C have been measured spectrophotometrically. The Br?nsted-type plot for the reactions of 7a-7l with DBU is linear with βlg = -0.48, indicating that the reactions proceed through a concerted mechanism, which is in contrast to the stepwise mechanism reported previously for the corresponding reactions with ethylamine (a primary amine) and piperidine (a secondary amine). The Hammett plots correlated with σ- and σo constants exhibit many scattered points. In contrast, the Yukawa-Tsuno plot results in an excellent linear correlation with ρY = 1.27 and r = 0.57, implying that a negative charge develops partially on the O atom of the leaving group in the transition state. The bulky DBU is less reactive than the primary and secondary amines toward substrates possessing a weakly basic leaving group. It has been concluded that steric hindrance exerted by DBU in the plausible intermediate (T±) forces the reactions to proceed through a concerted mechanism because expulsion of the leaving group from T± could reduce the steric hindrance.
Nucleophilic substitution reactions of phenyl y-substituted-phenyl carbonates with butane-2,3-dione monoximate and 4-chlorophenoxide: Origin of the α-effect

Second-order rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the reactions of phenyl Ysubstituted- phenyl carbonates 7a-g with butane-2,3-dione monoximate (Ox-) in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. The α-nucleophile Ox- is 53-95 times more reactive than the corresponding normalnucleophile 4-ClPhO- toward 7a-g, indicating that the α-effect is operative. The magnitude of the α-effect (e.g., the kOx/k4-ClPhO ratio) is independent of the electronic nature of the substituent Y. The cause of the α- effect for the reactions of 7a-g has been suggested to be ground-state (GS) effect rather than transition-state (TS) stabilization through a six-membered cyclic TS, in which Ox- behaves a general acid/base catalyst. This idea is further supported by the result that OH- exhibits negative deviation from the linear Bronsted-type plot composed of a series of aryloxides, while Ox- deviates positively from the linearity. Differential solvation of the GS of Ox- and 4-ClPhO- has been suggested to be responsible for the α-effect exerted by Ox-.

Second-order rate constants (kOH-) have been measured spectrophotometrically for alkaline hydrolysis of Y-substituted phenyl phenyl carbonates (2a-j) and compared with the kOH- values reported previously for the corresponding reactions of Y-substituted phenyl benzoates (1a-j). Carbonates 2a-j are 8 ～ 16 times more reactive than benzoates 1a-j. The Hammett plots correlated with σ- and σo constants exhibit many scattered points, while the Yukawa-Tsuno plot results in excellent linear correlation with ρ = 1.21 and r = 0.33. Thus, the reaction has been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism in which expulsion of the leaving group is advanced only a little. However, one cannot exclude a possibility that the current reaction proceeds through a forced concerted mechanism with a highly unstable intermediate.
