The kinetic studies on the reactions of phenyl N-phenyl phosphoramidochloridate (8) with substituted anilines ($XC_6H_4NH_2$) and deuterated anilines ($XC_6H_4ND_2$) have been carried out in acetonitrile at $60.0^{\circ}C$. The obtained deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs; $k_H/k_D$) are huge secondary inverse ($k_H/k_D$ = 0.52-0.69). A concerted mechanism is proposed with a backside attack transition state (TS) on the basis of the secondary inverse DKIEs and the variation trends of the $k_H/k_D$ values with X. The degree of bond formation in the TS is really extensive taking into account the very small values of the DKIEs. The steric effects of the two ligands on the rates are extensively discussed for the aminolyses of the chlorophosphate-type substrates on the basis of the Taft equation.

The rate constants of solvolysis of phenyl N-phenyl phosphoramidochloridate (PhNHPO(Cl)OPh, Target Compound-TC1) have been determined by a conductivity method. The solvolysis rate constants of TC1 are well correlated with the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, using the $N_T$ solvent nucleophilicity scale and YCl solvent ionizing scale, and sensitivity values of $0.85{\pm}0.14$ and $0.53{\pm}0.04$ for l and m, respectively. These l and m values were similar to those obtained previously for the complex chemical substances dimethyl thiophosphorochloridate; N,N,N',N'-tetramethyldiamidophosphorochloridate; 2-phenyl-2-ketoethyl tosylate; diphenyl thiophosphinyl chloride; and 9-fluorenyl chloroformate. As with the five previously studied solvolyses, an $S_N2$ pathway is proposed for the solvolyses of TC1. For four representative solvents, the rate constants were measured at several temperatures, and activation parameters (${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ and ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$) were estimated. These activation parameters are also in line with the values expected for an $S_N2$ reaction.
