The identification and understanding of structure-activity relationships is vital for rational catalyst design. A kinetic study of the hydrogen-deuterium exchange reaction of cyclohexanone in aqueous solution, as catalyzed by proline derivatives, has revealed valuable structure-activity relationships. In phosphate-buffered solution, cis-4-fluoroproline is more active than the trans isomer, a distinction that appears to originate from a destabilizing interaction between the fluorine atom and phos ...[more]
