Neopentyl arenesulfonates reacted with primary alkylmagnesium halides in the presence of $(PPh_3)_2NiCl_2$ to produce the corresponding alkylarenes. The efficiency of this coupling reaction considerably depends on the nature of catalyst and solvent. Highest yield was obtained by using three equivalents of Grignard reagent to a mixture of $(PPh_3)_2NiCl_2$ and arenesulfonate in refluxing $Et_2O$. This reaction represents a novel method allowing the efficient and creative substitution of sulfur-containing groups in aromatic compounds. It also shows that the alkyloxysulfonyl group might be a suitable alternative to halides and triflate in some circumstances.

Neopentyl arenesulfonates react with secondary alkylmagnesium chlorides in the presence of dppfNiCl2 to produce the corresponding arenes via the reductive cleavage of carbon-sulfur bond. Highest yield is obtained by using three equivalents of Grignard reagent to a mixture of arenesulfonate and dppfNiCl2 in Et2O at room temperature. This reaction represents a novel method allowing the efficient hydrogenolysis of sulfur-containing groups in aromatic compounds.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 1- and 2-naphthylethyl arenesulfonates, 2 and 3, with anilines and benzylamines in methanol at 65.0 ℃ are investigated. The rates are slower than those for the corresponding derivatives of 2-phenylethyl arenesulfonates, 1, which can be attributed to a greater degree of positive charge stabilization at Cα in the transition state (TS) by a greater electron supply from a phenyl ring compared to a naphthyl ring. The mechanism for the two naphthylethyl systems are similar to that for the 2-phenylethyl derivatives, except that the transition state is formed at somewhat an earlier position along the reaction coordinate. The secondary kinetic isotope effects involving deuterated nucleophilies indicate that naphthylethyl series are sterically more crowded in the TS than 2-phenylethyl system. The data in this work can not elucidate the possible participation of the aryl-assisted pathway in the reaction.

Kinetic studies are carried out on the reactions of 2-chloro-2-propen-1-yl arenesulfonates with anilines and N,N-dimethylanilines in acetonitrilile at 45.0 ℃. The 2-chloro substituent is found to deactive the allyl moiety with considerable decrease in the rates. The sign and magnitude of the cross-interaction constant (ρxz 0.3) and the inverse secondary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD 0.92) support an SN2 mechanism with a relatively tight transition state. The possibility of an SN2' mechanism can be safely precluded based on the ρxz values observed.

Benzyl arenesulfonate와 피리딘과의 아세톤 용매중에서의 反應速度를 測定하였다. Benzyl arenesulfonate의 離脫基의 치환기효과는 p-MeO基 및 $p-NO_2$기를 除外하고는 Hammett 式에 잘 적용되었으며, 전자끄는기는 반응속도를 증가시켰다. 離脫基의 치환효과는 벤질炭素에 아민이 親核的으로 공격하여 전이상태에서 치환기의 電子끄는 능력이 C-N 結合의 形成과 C-O結合의 쪼개짐에 변화를 주고 있다는 사실로서도 설명이 되어진다. 치환기효과는 benzyl p-bromobenzeneslfonate가 benzyl p-nitrobenzenesulfonate보다 N-C結合이 tight 한 전이상태의 구조를 가지고 있음을 말해주며 이는 結合의 형성과 쪼개짐에 있어 Thornton의 $S_N2$전이상태 구조의 예상과도 잘 符合된다.

置換 benzyl (X)arensulfornate (Z)와 置換디메틸아닐린(Y)을 아세톤 容媒中에서 Menschatkin型 反應에 對한 벤질核의 置換基 效果를 檢討하였다. Z의 置換基가 電子끄는基에서 주는 基로 變할때 ZY 間에 存在하던 相互作用項이 消失되었다. ZY間의 相互作用項의 유무는 Z의 置換基 變化에 依한 $S_N2{\longrightarrow}S_N1$에의 機構의 變化에 對應된다고 생각된다.

Kinetic studies on the reactions of five secondary acylic alkyl arenesulfonates with anilines are carried out in acetonitrile at 65.0 ℃. The magnitude of ρXZ determined (ρXZ=0.12-0.13) is slightly greater than that for the alicyclic series (ρXZ=0.11) under the same experimental condition. Ab initio MO results are found to support the slightly tighter transition state expected from the greater magnitude of ρXZ for the acyclic series. Despite the small variations, the magnitude of ρXZ and the theoretical transition state tightness remain relatively constant for the secondary carbon centers. Secondary kinetic isotope effects involving deuterated aniline nucleophiles show a successively smaller kH/kD(<1.0) value for a more sterically crowded reaction center carbon. This is in accord with the later transition state for bond-making predicted by the Bell-Evans-Polanyi principle for the more endothermic nucleophilic substitution reaction. Further support is provided by the results of the AM1 MO calculations on the reactions of secondary alkyl benzenesulfonates with chloride nucleophile.

The results of kinetic studies on the reactions of 2-phenyl-l-propyl arenesulfonates with anilines and benzylamines in methanol at $55.0^{\circ}C$ are reported. The transition state variation with the substituents in the nucleophile (X) and leaving group (Z) is in accord with that expected from a negative ${\sigma}_{XZ}$ value. A stronger nucleophile and nucleofuge lead to a greater extent of bond-making and -breaking. Somewhat greater magnitude of ${\sigma}_{XZ}$ compared to the nearly constant value for the similar processes at a primary carbon atom has been interpreted to result from a partial contribution of the concurrent frontal displacement path.

Kinetic studies are carried out on the reactions of 1- and 2-naphthylmethyl arenesulfonates with anilines in acetonitrile at 25.0 ℃. The rates are faster for the 2-naphthylmethyl series than for the corresponding 1-naphthylmethyl series suggesting that there is a greater stabilization of positive charge development in the TS at the arylmethyl reaction center carbon for the former. The sign and magnitude of ρxz (=-0.12) are similar to those of the benzylic series. Thus, benzyl, 1- and 2-naphthylmethyl derivatives belong to a class of compounds which react with aniline nucleophiles through a relatively loose SN2 TS. Kinetic secondary deuterium isotope effects indicated that a stronger nucleophile and nucleofuge lead to a later TS as the definition of ρxz requires.
