Effects of mixed Aqueous-Organic solveuts on the rate of intramolecular Carboxylic Group-Catalyzed cleavage Of N-(4'-Methoxyphenyl)-Phthalamic Acid

Kinetic study on the cleavage of N-(4'-methoxyphenyl)phthalamic acid (NMPPAH) in mixed H2O-CH3CN and H2O-1,4-dioxan solvents containing 0.05 M HCl reveals the formation of phthalic anhydride (PAn)/phthalic acid (PA) as the sole or major product. Pseudo first-order rate constants (k(1)) for the...
