Kinetics and mechanism of large rate enhancement in the Alkaline Hydrolysis of N '-Morpholino-N-(2'-Methoxyphenyl)Phthalamide

The apparent second-order rate constant (k(OH)) for hydroxide-ion-catalyzed conversion of 1 to N-(2'-methoxyphenyl)phthalamate (4) is similar to 10(3)-fold larger than k(OH) for alkaline hydrolysis of N-morpholinobenzamide (2). These results are explained in terms of the reaction scheme 1 ->...
