Efficient rate enhancement due yo intramolecular general base (IGB) assistance in the hydrolysis of N-(O-Hydroxyphenyl)Phthalimide

The rates of the hydrolyses of N-(o-hydroxyphenyl)phthalimide (1) and N-(o-methoxyphenyl)phthalimide (2), studied at different pH, show that the hydrolysis of 1 involves intramolecular general base (IGB) assistance where the o-O- group of ionized 1 acts as IGB and H2O as the reactant. The rate enhan...
