The kinetics of reaction between cyclic monoimides (succinimide, phtalimide, and glutarimide) with ethylene and propylene oxides in presence of sodium hydroxide was studied. The effect of substrate and catalyst concen...
Literature describes kinetics of reactions of alcohols, phenols, carboxylic acids, amines and amides with oxiranes such as ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. However, there is no information regarding kinetic of reac...
The mechanism of reaction of cyclic monoimides with oxiranes was established based upon kinetic studies and product analysis. It has been established that the reaction proceeds through initial formation of an adduct o...
