We studied the kinetics of the N ‐chlorination of 2‐aminobutyric, 3‐aminoisobutyric, and 4‐aminobutyric acids by sodium hypoclorite in strongly alkaline aqueous solution. As in the case of other amines, the rate of formation of the four N ‐chloroamino acids was proportional to the concentrations of hypochlorite and amino acid, and inversely proportional to the concentration of hydroxyl ions. A reaction mechanism compatible with these results is proposed and discussed. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
