The kinetic and mechanism of the reaction between phenylisocyanate and ethanol, in the presence of various additives, able to inhibit or to activate the urethane formation, have been evaluated. An alternative reaction mechanism, as a special case of second-order reaction for the reactions performed in unpolar media is proposed. In the first step of the reaction, the isocyanate group is activated through a rapid and reversible process by the "mobile"
Read moreSodium periodate/wet silica gel in the presence of dichloromethane is an efficient reagent at room temperature for the phthalimide N-oxyl (PINO) radical generation from its precursor N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI). PINO reactions with cycloalkenes occur exclusively by a pure radical mechanism, contrasting with PINO's behavior when it is generated using lead tetraacetate.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)

In all cases, except the NHPI / Pb(OAc)4
