Plot of kobsd vs tetrahydrofuran (THF) concentration25 for the enolization of 0.0050 M oxazolidinone 9 with 0.10 M lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) with THF in hexane ( Inline graphic) and toluene ( Inline graphic) at −78 °C. The curve depicts an unweighted least-squares fit to the composite model described by eq 12 (vide infra). Inline graphic (hexane): [A]0 is set at 0.10 M; Keq = (2.3 ± 0.2) × 10−4; k8 = (3.9 ± 0.1) × 10−2; k9 = (2 ± 10) × 10−8; k10 is set to 2.0 × 10−4; k11 = (5 ± 4) × 10−10. Inline graphic (toluene): All parameters carried over from the fit from curve A; additionally, a = −3.19 × 10−5; b = 3.36 × 10−5; c is set at 1.0; and m = 4.81.
