TLDR
In this article, reactions of (E)-O-arylbenzaldoximes 1-3 with MeONa-MeOH have been studied kinetically, in which the first step is rate-determining.
Abstract
Reactions of (E)-O-arylbenzaldoximes 1-3 with MeONa-MeOH have been studied kinetically. The reactions proceed via competing E2 and S N Ar reactions, in which the first step is rate-determining. Although the reactions were strongly influenced by the electronic effect of the β- and O-aryl substituents, they were insensitive to the steric effect of the O-aryl group, except that the S N Ar reaction was retarded by the CF 3 group of 2. For eliminations from 1-3 promoted by MeONa-MeOH, the k H /k D value increased and the Hammett p value decreased with better leaving groups

Controlled Double-Bond Migration in Palladium-Catalyzed Intramolecular Arylation of Enamidines.

TL;DR: A combination of BINAP and the amidine function was required to obtain the isomers 5a and 5b with the double bond in the homoallylic position relative to the aryl group.

Theoretical study on the lithium-halogen exchange reaction of 1,1-dihaloalkenes with methyllithium and the nucleophilic substitution reaction of the resulting α-halo alkenyllithiums

TL;DR: Transition structures for the lithium-bromine exchange reaction of 1,1-dibromoalkenes with methyllithium have been located by both the B3LYP and the MP2 levels of theory with the 6-31+G basis set and predict both the kinetic and the thermodynamic stereoselectivity correctly.

Aryl radical endo cyclization of enamidines. Selective preparation of trans and cis fused octahydrobenzo[f]quinolines

TL;DR: In the 7-endo cyclization to N-protected octahydro-1H-benzo[3,4]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridine, the trans fused isomer predominates, although the selectivity is low.

Mechanism of electrophilic chlorination: experimental determination of a geometrical requirement for chlorine transfer by the endocyclic restriction test.

TL;DR: An endocyclic restriction test for acid-catalyzed transfer of chlorine from a protonated chloroamine to an aromatic ring provides data that are consistent with a transition structure with a large bond angle between the entering and leaving groups around chlorine.
