The second-order rate constants of the reactions of alkyl-substituted pyrroles with a series of benzhydrylium ions were determined in acetonitrile, and the reaction products were fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The formation of the sigma adducts is the rate-limiting step of these reactions. Because the second-order rate constants correlate linearly with the electrophilicity parameters of the benzhydrylium ions, the determination of the nucleophilicity parameters N and s according to the linear free energy relationship log k(2) (20 degrees C) = s(N + E) was achieved. With these findings, a direct comparison of the nucleophilic reactivities of these pi-excessive heterocycles with other nucleophiles became possible, and the pyrroles were integrated into the comprehensive scale of nucleophilicity, covering a range of 8-9 orders of magnitude from N-(triisopropylsilyl)pyrrole (N = 3.12), the weakest nucleophile of this series, to kryptopyrrole (3-ethyl-2,4-dimethylpyrrole, N = 11.63). Thus, highly reactive pyrroles show similar nucleophilic reactivities as enamines, whereas those of less-reactive pyrroles are comparable to allylsilanes or indoles. ((C) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
