Abstract
The kinetics of the reaction of 2-nitroethenylbenzene with sulfur-containing nucleophilic reagents such as sodium phenylsulfinate, sodium thiosulfate, sodium bisulfite, sodium sulfide, sodium thiophenolate, and sodium thioglycolate was studied by means of UV spectroscopy. The change in the nucleophilic reactivity of these nucleophiles depending on their basicity was studied. The reactions can be expressed by a second-order kinetic equation. Rate constants, activating energy and enthalpy of activation were calculated at 288–308 K.
