Elimination Reactions E1, E2, E1cb and Ei
Elimination Reactions Dr. H. Ghosh Surendranath College, Kol-9 ________________________________________________ E1, E2, E1cB and Ei (pyrolytic syn eliminations); formation of alkenes and alkynes; mechanisms (with evidence), reactivity, regioselectivity (Saytzeff/Hofmann) and stereoselectivity; comparison between substitution and elimination. Substitution Reactions Elimination Reactions Elimination happens when the nucleophile attacks hydrogen instead of carbon Strong Base favor Elimination Bulky Nucleophile/Base favor Elimination High Temperature favors Elimination We know- This equation says that a reaction in which ΔS is positive is more thermodynamically favorable at higher temperature. Eliminations should therefore be favoured at high temperature Keep in Mind---- Mechanism Classification E1 Mechanism- Elimination Unimolecular E1 describes an elimination reaction (E) in which the rate-determining step is unimolecular (1) and does not involve the base. The leaving group leaves in this step, and the proton is removed in a separate second step E2 Mechanism- Elimination Bimolecular E2 describes an elimination (E) that has a bimolecular (2) rate-determining step that must involve the base. Loss of the leaving group is simultaneous with removal of the proton by the base Bulky t-butoxide—ideal for promoting E2 as it’s both bulky and a strong base (pKaH = 18). Other Organic Base used in Elimination Reaction These two bases are amidines—delocalization of one nitrogen’s lone pair on to the other, and the resulting stabilization of the protonated amidinium ion, E1 can occur only with substrates that can ionize to give relatively stable carbocations—tertiary, allylic or benzylic alkyl halides, for example. E1-Elimination Reaction not possible here The role of the leaving group Since the leaving group is involved in the rate-determining step of both E1 and E2, in general, any good leaving group will lead to a fast elimination. -

The Relative Rates of Thiol–Thioester Exchange and Hydrolysis for Alkyl and Aryl Thioalkanoates in Water
Orig Life Evol Biosph (2011) 41:399–412 DOI 10.1007/s11084-011-9243-4 PREBIOTIC CHEMISTRY The Relative Rates of Thiol–Thioester Exchange and Hydrolysis for Alkyl and Aryl Thioalkanoates in Water Paul J. Bracher & Phillip W. Snyder & Brooks R. Bohall & George M. Whitesides Received: 14 April 2011 /Accepted: 16 June 2011 / Published online: 5 July 2011 # Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 Abstract This article reports rate constants for thiol–thioester exchange (kex), and for acid- mediated (ka), base-mediated (kb), and pH-independent (kw) hydrolysis of S-methyl thioacetate and S-phenyl 5-dimethylamino-5-oxo-thiopentanoate—model alkyl and aryl thioalkanoates, respectively—in water. Reactions such as thiol–thioester exchange or aminolysis could have generated molecular complexity on early Earth, but for thioesters to have played important roles in the origin of life, constructive reactions would have needed to compete effectively with hydrolysis under prebiotic conditions. Knowledge of the kinetics of competition between exchange and hydrolysis is also useful in the optimization of systems where exchange is used in applications such as self-assembly or reversible binding. For the alkyl thioester S-methyl thioacetate, which has been synthesized in −5 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 simulated prebiotic hydrothermal vents, ka = 1.5×10 M s , kb = 1.6×10 M s , and −8 −1 kw = 3.6×10 s . At pH 7 and 23°C, the half-life for hydrolysis is 155 days. The second- order rate constant for thiol–thioester exchange between S-methyl thioacetate and 2- −1 −1 sulfonatoethanethiolate is kex = 1.7 M s . -

Transition State Analysis of the Reaction Catalyzed by the Phosphotriesterase from Sphingobium Sp

TCM1 † † † ‡ ‡ Andrew N. Bigley, Dao Feng Xiang, Tamari Narindoshvili, Charlie W. Burgert, Alvan C. Hengge,*, † and Frank M. Raushel*, † Department of Chemistry, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas 77843, United States ‡ Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Utah State University, Logan, Utah 84322, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Organophosphorus flame retardants are stable toxic compounds used in nearly all durable plastic products and are considered major emerging pollutants. The phospho- triesterase from Sphingobium sp. TCM1 (Sb-PTE) is one of the few enzymes known to be able to hydrolyze organo- phosphorus flame retardants such as triphenyl phosphate and tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate. The effectiveness of Sb-PTE for the hydrolysis of these organophosphates appears to arise from its ability to hydrolyze unactivated alkyl and phenolic esters from the central phosphorus core. How Sb-PTE is able to catalyze the hydrolysis of the unactivated substituents is not known. To interrogate the catalytic hydrolysis mechanism of Sb-PTE, the pH dependence of the reaction and the effects of changing the solvent viscosity were determined. These experiments were complemented by measurement of the primary and ff ff secondary 18-oxygen isotope e ects on substrate hydrolysis and a determination of the e ects of changing the pKa of the leaving group on the magnitude of the rate constants for hydrolysis. Collectively, the results indicated that a single group must be ionized for nucleophilic attack and that a separate general acid is not involved in protonation of the leaving group. -
Lecture Outline a Closer Look at Carbocation Stabilities and SN1/E1 Reaction Rates We Learned That an Important Factor in the SN
Lecture outline A closer look at carbocation stabilities and SN1/E1 reaction rates We learned that an important factor in the SN1/E1 reaction pathway is the stability of the carbocation intermediate. The more stable the carbocation, the faster the reaction. But how do we know anything about the stabilities of carbocations? After all, they are very unstable, high-energy species that can't be observed directly under ordinary reaction conditions. In protic solvents, carbocations typically survive only for picoseconds (1 ps - 10–12s). Much of what we know (or assume we know) about carbocation stabilities comes from measurements of the rates of reactions that form them, like the ionization of an alkyl halide in a polar solvent. The key to connecting reaction rates (kinetics) with the stability of high-energy intermediates (thermodynamics) is the Hammond postulate. The Hammond postulate says that if two consecutive structures on a reaction coordinate are similar in energy, they are also similar in structure. For example, in the SN1/E1 reactions, we know that the carbocation intermediate is much higher in energy than the alkyl halide reactant, so the transition state for the ionization step must lie closer in energy to the carbocation than the alkyl halide. The Hammond postulate says that the transition state should therefore resemble the carbocation in structure. So factors that stabilize the carbocation also stabilize the transition state leading to it. Here are two examples of rxn coordinate diagrams for the ionization step that are reasonable and unreasonable according to the Hammond postulate. We use the Hammond postulate frequently in making assumptions about the nature of transition states and how reaction rates should be influenced by structural features in the reactants or products. -
Enzymatic Kinetic Isotope Effects from First-Principles Path Sampling
Article pubs.acs.org/JCTC Enzymatic Kinetic Isotope Effects from First-Principles Path Sampling Calculations Matthew J. Varga and Steven D. Schwartz* Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: In this study, we develop and test a method to determine the rate of particle transfer and kinetic isotope effects in enzymatic reactions, specifically yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (YADH), from first-principles. Transition path sampling (TPS) and normal mode centroid dynamics (CMD) are used to simulate these enzymatic reactions without knowledge of their reaction coordinates and with the inclusion of quantum effects, such as zero-point energy and tunneling, on the transferring particle. Though previous studies have used TPS to calculate reaction rate constants in various model and real systems, it has not been applied to a system as large as YADH. The calculated primary H/D kinetic isotope effect agrees with previously reported experimental results, within experimental error. The kinetic isotope effects calculated with this method correspond to the kinetic isotope effect of the transfer event itself. The results reported here show that the kinetic isotope effects calculated from first-principles, purely for barrier passage, can be used to predict experimental kinetic isotope effects in enzymatic systems. ■ INTRODUCTION staging method from the Chandler group.10 Another method that uses an energy gap formalism like QCP is a hybrid Particle transfer plays a crucial role in a breadth of enzymatic ff reactions, including hydride, hydrogen atom, electron, and quantum-classical approach of Hammes-Schi er and co-work- 1 ers, which models the transferring particle nucleus as a proton-coupled electron transfer reactions. -

Motornov, Sema L. Ioffe, Andrey A. Tabolin * N. D. Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences, Leninsky prosp. 47, 119991 Moscow, Russia (e - mail: [email protected]) Abstract. [3+2] - A nnulation reactions are widely used for the synthesis of aromatic heterocycles. In recent years they have become attractive for the preparation of medicinally relevant heterocycles due to their broad substrate scope and availability of starting materials . A nnulations with nitroalkenes may lead to different products due to the ability of the nitro - group to act both as activating group and as leaving group. Ultimately this gives rise to the synthesis of multifunctional heterocyclic compounds, including nitro - substituted ones. The present review covers various annulation re actions with nitroalkenes leading to five - membered nitrogen - containing heterocyclic rings. Oxidative annulation, annulation/elimination and self - oxidative annulation pathways are discussed. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Classification of nitroalkene - b ased annulation reactions 3.
