Some spectroscopic, kinetic and equilibria studies of cyano- and nitro- substituted anisoles and phenols and their reactions with nucleophiles

The reactions of ring-activated alkyl aryl ethers with nucleophiles have been examined. The main pathways involve attack by the nucleophiles at the alkyl carbon to give substituted phenoxide ions, or at ring carbon atoms to give σ-adducts. The dealkylation reactions have been observed by both (^1)H...
