Abstract

Rapid iodination kinetics of aniline and its alkyl derivatives in aqueous medium by iodine monochloride have been studied by the competition technique. The specific reaction rates of iodination of these substrates are evaluated as 300, 920, 1777 and 2200 M-1s-1, at 26.0oC, for aniline, N-ethyl aniline, N-methyl aniline and N,N-dimethyl aniline, respectively. These values quantitatively assess the relative nucleophilicity of these alkyl derivatives in aqueous medium. The competition technique has been used to evaluate the specific rates of the fast reactions studied herein.
