Trifunctional Metal Ion-Catalyzed Solvolysis: Cu(II)-Promoted Methanolysis of N,N-bis(2-picolyl) Benzamides Involves Unusual Lewis Acid Activation of Substrate, Delivery of Coordinated Nucleophile, Powerful Assistance of the Leaving Group Departure

Abstract: The methanolyses of Cu(II) complexes of a series of N,N-bis(2-picolyl) benzamides (4a-g) bearing substituents X on the aromatic ring were studied under (s)(s)pH-controlled conditions at 25 °C. The active form of the complexes at neutral (s)(s)pH has a stoichiometry of 4:Cu(II):((-)OCH(3))(HOCH(3)) and decomposes unimolecularly with a rate constant k(x). A Hammett plot of log(k(x)) vs σ(x) values has a ρ(x) of 0.80 ± 0.05. Solvent deuterium kinetic isotope effects of 1.12 and 1.20 were determined for decomposit… Show more

“…Further studies support this reaction mechanism. [13,14] Within the last 5 years, our group succeeded in demonstrating the synthetic value of N,N-bis (2-picolyl)amides and widened the scope on similar chelating amides. The possibility to cleave them in a mild and selective manner makes them suitable for applications as linker molecules in solid-phase-chemistry or as protecting groups for carboxylic M A N U S C R I P T…”

“…pK values of ≤ 6.5 [52,53]. The Hammett plot of the lg(k max ) vs. σ x value of the substituents on 15 has a gradient of 0.80 ± 0.05 [52] showing that there is some negative charge building up on the aryl group in the rate limiting TS. Since the plot is linear over the entire group, there is no evidence for a change in mechanism or rate limiting step in passing from substrates having electron donors to those having withdrawing substituents.…”

“…The implications and additional demonstrations of this discovery remained relatively dormant until much later when physical studies of such M(II):amides [45][46][47] and the demonstration of their synthetic utility [48] appeared. These, as well as reports on the methanolysis of metal complexes of secondary amides [49,50] prompted us to investigate the mechanism of metal ion promoted alcoholysis under s s pH controlled conditions [51][52][53]. pK values of ≤ 6.5 [52,53].…”
