The molecularity of an elementary reaction is the number of molecules that collide during that step in the mechanism., 695-53-4, If there is only a single reactant molecule in an elementary reaction, that step is designated as unimolecular. 695-53-4, name is 5,5-Dimethyloxazolidine-2,4-dione. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.
695-53-4, General procedure: To a solution of 4-methoxybenzoyl chloride (0.307 g, 1.80 mmol) in dry THF (6.6 mL) was added a solution of triethylamine (1.80-2.7 mmol) in dry THF (0.4 mL). After stirring for 10 min at room temperature, the appropriate oxazolidine-2,4-dione (2.7 mmol of crude 7a or 1,16 mmol of 5,5-dimethyloxazolidinedione or 7b) was added to the reaction mixture and the resulting solution was refluxed for 17-20 h. The synthesis of 4g was monitored by 1H-NMR. After filtration of the reaction mixture, the solvent was evaporated and the residue obtained was purified by chromatography or by recrystallization.
Any one of these steps may be slow and thus may serve as the rate determining step. In general, however, in the presence of the catalyst, the overall rate of the reaction is faster than it would be if the reactants were in the gas or liquid phase.
