Abstract

Several years ago we suggested that the oxidation-reduction reaction of a 1, 4- dihydronicotinamide (1) with trifluoroacetophenone (2)(Scheme I) proceeds via an intermediate.'This was based on our observation that isotope effects determined by comparison of the rates of disappearance of protio-and 4-deuteriodihydronicotinamides (1 and 1-d I)* were small compared with those determined from the partitioning of hydrogen ...
