摘要

The kinetics of the aqueous iodine oxidation of a number of imidazolyl-and benzimidazolylalkyl methyl sulfides have been studied. Evidence of neighboring-group participation has been observed in all cases. The anchimeric assistance provided by the benzimidazole moiety is evidenced by rate accelerations of lo2-lo6. The oxidation of l-methyl- 2-[3-(methylthio) propyl] imidazole, 1, is le times faster than that of simple thioethers and is ...
