The release of substituted phenol from aryl uridine-3''-phosphates is catalyzed by bases and involves cyclization to form the 2'',3''-cyclic nucleotide. The rate constants for imidazole and hydroxide ion catalysis (kim and kOH, respectively) obey the Br.vphi.nsted equations (25.degree.C and 0.25 M ionic strength) log kim = -0.59 pKArOH + 1.40 (n = 7, r = 0.955) and log kOH = -0.54 pKArOH + 6.68 (n = 9, r = 0.967). General-base-catalyzed release of 4-nitrophenol from the 4-nitrophenyl ester (kB) obeys the Br.vphi.nsted relationship log kB = 0.67 pKBH - 7.50 (n = 7, r = 0.989). Charge changes on base and leaving group atoms as determined from the corresponding .beta. and .beta.eq values do not balance. Comparison with data in the literature indicates that the difference in charge may be assigned to the attacking oxygen (2''-hydroxyl) rather than to the phosphoryl oxygens in the O.cntdot..cntdot..cntdot.PO2.cntdot..cntdot..cntdot. group of atoms. both P.sbd.O bond forming and bond fission components of the reaction are considered to be only weakly advanced in a transition state that lies on a concerted pathway.
