Abstract

Abstract The kinetics for the release of halide ions from some haloalkylamines and the corresponding haloalkylammonium ions have been investigated in aqueous solutions under different conditions. In basic solutions, the free amines react according to a two-term rate law k obs= k 1+ k 2 [OH-] and their reactivities are in the order: 2-chloroethylamine≈ 2-chloro-n- propylamine» 3-chloro-n-propylamine. The products formed are the corresponding ...
