Effects of medium on decarboxylation kinetics: 3-carboxybenzisoxazoles and their potential use as environmental probes in biochemistry.

The decarboxylation rate of the tetramethylguanidinium salt of 3-carboxy-6-nitrobenzisoxazole in 24 pure solvents and 36 dimethyl sulfoxide binary mixtures with diglyme, acetonitrile, benzene, dichloromethane, chloroform, and methanol was analyzed in the light of the SPP, SA, and SB pure solvent scales. The results allow one to rationalize the high sensitivity of this kinetics to the reaction medium and to assess the potential use of this compound as a probe in biochemical environments. The natural environment for comparison of this kinetics was found to be the gas phase rather than the aqueous medium. In the latter, the process is much faster owing to such high polarity, which, however, is strongly diminished by the high acidity of the medium. Based on our calculations, the rate constant for the decarboxylation kinetics in the gas phase must be in the region of 2 x 10(-10) s(-1) (i.e., 3 orders of magnitude smaller than in water).
