Abstract
A solid-liquid substitution reaction of (Mes)(3)SnCl with MX(Mes = mesityl: x = OCN, N-3, CN and SCN: M=Na or K) was carried out in the presence of on e of three crown ethers (18-crown-6, 15-crown-5, and 12-crown-4) as well as in the absence of them, using n- hexane as a solvent at 25 degrees C. The reaction attained equilibrium in a shorter period in the presence of the cr own ethers than in the absence of them, except the reaction with KCN. The e xtent of the substitution was dependent on X, but nearly independent on the kind of the three crown ethers.
