Kinetics of the Volume and Surface Reactions in the Phase-Transfer Catalytic Aminolysis of 4-Nitrophenyl Acetate

It was shown that a distribution-type kinetic model can be used to describe the mechanism of the phase-transfer catalytic aminolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate with potassium glycinate in chlorobenzene with 18-crown-6 as catalyst. A quantitative assessment was made of the contributions from the reactions in the volume and at the interface in the solid/liquid system.
