Abstract
An alternative mechanism is proposed for the simultaneous hydrolysis a nd isomerization of 3',5 ''-uridyluridine and related dialkyl phosphat es in aqueous morpholine buffers, which was studied by Breslow and Xu. This alternative mechanism leads to kinetic equations that reproduce the experimental data.
