“…The corresponding mechanism involves either an addition of OH − into the carbonyl with a further elimination of the RO − leaving group or an abstraction of the hydrogen of the methylcarbamate moiety again evolving with the elimination of the RO − group. Consequently, we have undertaken in our laboratory a study of the determination of both the kinetic and mechanistic aspects of the hydrolysis reaction of carbaryl , carbofuran , methiocarb , bendiocarb , zectran , aminocarb , landrin , ethiofencarb , carzol , isoprocarb , and pirimicarb . We showed that hydrolysis of PNMCs exhibited pseudo–first‐order kinetics with respect to substrate in aqueous media.…”
