Three series of 0-imidomethyl derivatives of para-substituted phenolic compounds were synthesized and their rates of hydrolysis were studied. Saccharin, phthalimide, and succinimide served as the imide portions of the derivatives. Their rates of hydrolysis were found to be first order with respect to hydroxide from pH 7.0 to 10 or 11 and dependent on the acidity (leaving group potential) of both the imide and the phenol portions. The more ...
