The kinetics of carbamate formation from the reaction of carbon dioxide with α‐amino acids in D2O was first investigated by means of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Potassium carbonate was used as the CO2source. For each amino acid, the maximum carbamate yield, the apparent rate constant for the carbamate formationkapp, and the rate constants for the formationk1and the breakdownk−1of the carbamate were estimated. Plots of logk1or logk−1versus pKaof amino acids indicated that the formation ratek1increased with the basicity (pKa) of amino acid, while the decomposition ratek−1decreased. A Brϕnstedβvalue of 0.39 was obtained from the former plot, being in good agreement with the previously reported ones (0.26–0.43). The observed negative pKadependence of logk−1(Brϕnstedα= 0.34) is reasonable, because the carbamate decomposition is acid‐catalyzed and the steady‐state concentration of H+should be higher for weaker basic amines. The charge (σ) and the lone‐pair energy (EN) at the nitrogen atom of the amino group were calculated. Although logk1correlated with σ andEN, logk−1was unrelated with both of these parameters. Considering that the carbamate formation (k1) is not only base‐catalyzed but should also be promoted by the nucleophilicity of the amino nitrogen, its correlation with σ andENin addition to pKais rational. The irrelevance of logk−1to σ andENis not surprising, because σ andENare not a direct measure of [H+] of the solution. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
