- Abstract
- The aminoxyl radical (>N-O¥) BTNO (benzotriazole-N-oxyl) has been generated by the oxidation
of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT; >N-OH) with a CeIV salt in MeCN. BTNO presents a broad
absorption band with ìmax 474 nm and ? 1840 M-1 cm-1, and spontaneously decays with a firstorder
rate constant of 6.3 ? 10-3 s-1 in MeCN at 25 °C. Characterization of BTNO radical by EPR,
laser flash photolysis, and cyclic voltammetry is provided. The spontaneous decay of BTNO is
strongly accelerated in the presence of H-donor substrates such as alkylarenes, benzyl and allyl
alcohols, and alkanols, and rate constants of H-abstraction by BTNO from a number of substrates
have been spectroscopically investigated at 25 °C. The kinetic isotope effect confirms the
H-abstraction step as rate-determining. Activation parameters have been measured in the 15-40
°C range with selected substrates. A correlation between Ea and BDE(C-H) (C-H bond dissociation
energy) for a small series of H-donors has been obtained according to the Evans-Polanyi equation,
giving R ) 0.44. From this plot, the experimentally unavailable BDE(C-H) of benzyl alcohol can
be extrapolated, as ca. 79 kcal/mol. With respect to the H-abstraction step, peculiar differences in
the ¢Sq parameter emerge between an alkylarene, ArC(H)R2, and a benzyl alcohol, ArC(H)(OH)R.
The data acquired on the H-abstraction reactivity of BTNO are compared with those recently
reported for the aminoxyl radical PINO (phthalimide-N-oxyl), generated from N-hydroxyphthalimide
(HPI). The higher reactivity of radical PINO is explained on the basis of the higher energy of the
NO-H bond of HPI, as compared with that of HBT (88 vs ca. 85 kcal/mol, respectively), which is
formed on H-abstraction from the RH substrate. (literal)
