<Mieczysław Mąkosza> coauthored mechanistic work on <vicarious nucleophilic substitution> of hydrogen in nitroarenes. Isotope effects, base dependence, and competing substitution pathways support reversible addition followed by base-induced elimination.
The evidence distinguishes that sequence from a proposed hydride-shift alternative. Combining several measurements is valuable because one product structure can be compatible with more than one imagined mechanism.<Reaction of organic anions. Part 108. On the mechanism of the vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in nitroarenes by Mieczysław Mąkosza and Tomasz Glinka>[Mechanistic tests and competing pathways]{ref}
