Abstract
The question as to what extent aromaticity in a reactant or product is expressed in the transition state of a reaction has only recently received serious attention. Inasmuch as aromaticity is related to resonance, one might expect that, in a reaction that leads to aromatic products, its development at the transition state should lag behind bond changes as is invariably the case for the development of resonance in reactions that lead to delocalized products. However, recent experimental and computational studies on proton transfers from carbon acids suggest the opposite behavior, i.e., the development of aromaticity at the transition state ismoreadvanced than the proton transfer. The evidence for this claim is based on the determination of intrinsic barriers that show a decrease with increasing aromaticity. According to the Principle of Nonperfect Synchronization (PNS), this decrease in the intrinsic barrier implies a disproportionately large amount of aromatic stabilization of the transition state. Additional evidence for the high degree of transition state aromaticity comes from the calculation of aromaticity indices such as HOMA, NICS, and the Bird Index. Possible reasons why the degree to which aromaticity and resonance are expressed at the transition state is different are discussed.

Abstract
A kinetic study of the reversible deprotonation of benzofuran-3(2H)-one (3H-O) and benzothiophene-3(2H)-one (3H-S) by amines and hydroxide ion in water at 25 degrees C is reported. The respective conjugate bases, 3--O and 3--S, represent benzofuran and benzothiophene derivatives, respectively, and thus are aromatic. The main question addressed in this paper is whether this aromaticity has the effect of enhancing or lowering intrinsic barriers to proton transfer. These intrinsic barriers were either determined from Brønsted plots for the reactions with amines or calculated on the basis of the Marcus equation for the reaction with OH-; they were found to be lower for the more highly aromatic benzothiophene derivative, indicating that aromaticity lowers the intrinsic barrier. It is shown that the reduction in the intrinsic barrier is not an artifact of other factors such as inductive, steric, resonance, polarizability, and pi-donor effects, although these factors affect the intrinsic barriers in a major way. Our results imply that aromatic stabilization of the transition state is ahead of proton transfer; this contrasts with simple resonance effects, which typically lag behind proton transfer at the transition state, thereby increasing intrinsic barriers.

Abstract
The knowledge of the reactivity of Fischer carbene complexes in electron transfer processes is still in the early stage of development, but interesting advances are foreseeable in this young branch of metal-carbene chemistry. Although these compounds have a dual reactivity (which makes them good substrates for oxidation and reduction processes), their behavior towards chemical electron transfer (ET) reagents was unknown until very recently. This article covers the progress accomplished in the reactivity of these compounds towards chemical ET reagents (C(8)K or SmI(2)), as well as the use of nonconventional sources of electrons, such as electrospray ionization (ESI) to induce ET processes. Special emphasis will be made on the effect of the structure of the starting carbene in the outcome of the reaction and in discussing the different mechanisms proposed.

Abstract
Rates of the reversible deprotonation of benzo[b]-2,3-dihydrofuran-2-one (6H-O) and benzo[b]-2,3-dihydrothiophene-2-one (6H-S) by OH-, primary aliphatic amines, secondary alicyclic amines, and carboxylate ions have been determined in water at 25 degrees C. As noted earlier by Kresge and Meng, 6H-S (pKa = 8.82) is considerably more acidic than 6H-O (pKa = 11.68), which mainly reflects the greater aromatic stabilization of the conjugate base of 6H-S (thiophene derivative) compared to that of 6H-O (furan derivative). The main focus of this paper is to assess how the difference in the aromaticity of the two enolate ions affects the intrinsic barrier to the proton transfer. These intrinsic barriers were determined from Brønsted plots for the reactions with the amines and carboxylate ions or calculated on the basis of the Marcus equation for the reactions with OH-. They are consistently somewhat higher for the reactions of 6H-S than for the reactions of 6H-O, implying that the aromaticity in the anion enhances the intrinsic barrier. This contrasts with a previous report on the deprotonation of some cyclic rhenium Fischer-type carbene complexes where the reaction that leads to the most aromatic conjugate base (thiophene derivative) has a lower intrinsic barrier than the reaction that leads to the less aromatic furan analogue. We are offering a detailed analysis of other potential factors that may affect the intrinsic barriers and which could explain these contradictory results.

Abstract
A kinetic study of the reversible deprotonation of phenyl-substituted (benzylmethoxycarbene)pentacarbonylchromium(0) complexes by OH(-) and by a series of primary aliphatic and a series of secondary alicyclic amines in 50% MeCN-50% water (v/v) at 25 degrees C is reported. Brønsted alpha(CH) values (dependence on carbene complex acidity) and beta(B) values (dependence on amine basicity) were determined. According to current notions about proton transfers involving carbon acids activated by pi-acceptors, alpha(CH) was expected to substantially exceed beta(B), the result of transition-state imbalances that are characteristic of such reactions. However we find that alpha(CH) and beta(B) have essentially the same values, which are close to 0.5. It is shown that these findings do not indicate the absence of an imbalance but rather suggest that the manifestation of the imbalance is masked by the pi-donor effect (3H-Z <--> 3H-Z(+/-)) of the methoxy group.

Abstract
The pK(a) values of a cationic selenyl- (5H(+)) and a benzothienylcarbene complex (6H(+)) and rate constants for the reversible deprotonation of these complexes by water, carboxylate ions, primary aliphatic amines, secondary alicyclic amines (5H(+) only), and OH(-) (5H(+) only) were determined in 50% MeCN-50% water (v/v) at 25 degrees C. In comparison with neutral Fischer-type carbene complexes such as 1H, the cationic complexes 5H(+) and 6H(+) are much more acidic, and the intrinsic barriers to proton transfer are substantially higher. This paper discusses a variety of factors that contribute to these differences, with the most important ones being that 5H(+) and 6H(+) are cationic, which makes the C(5)H(5)(NO)(PPh(3))Re moiety a stronger pi-acceptor than the (CO)(5)M moieties, coupled with the fact that the deprotonated forms of 5H(+) and 6H(+ )are aromatic molecules.
