Abstract
The dependence of the hydrolysis of 1-methyl-2-benzoylmethylenehexahydroazepine on the pH of the solution was studied. It is shown that the dependence of the observed rate constant (kobs) on the pH is represented by a bell-shaped curve. At pH 3–6, kobs depends on the acetic acid concentration in an acetate buffer with the same pH value. The addition of potassium acetate to a 0.1 N HCl solution gives rise to a statistically reliable increase in kobs. It was shown by means of a model compound that the O-protonated form of the enamino ketones is resistant to hydrolysis. A mechanism for the hydrolysis of 1-methyl-2-benzoylmethylenehexahydroazepine in which the rate-determining step at pH 0–6 is C protonation is proposed.
