The reactions of a series of 3‐( p ‐substituted phenyl)‐1‐phenylprop‐2‐yn‐1‐ones with piperidine and morpholine in methanol were studied and their rates measured. The products were 3‐piperidino‐ and 3‐morpholino‐3‐( p ‐substituted phenyl)‐1‐phenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐ones. 1 H NMR spectra were used to determine the configurations of the obtained products. A good Hammett correlation was obtained with ρ values of 1·15–1·10 and 1·15–0·53 for piperidine and morpholine, respectively, which suggest a carbanionic character of the transition state. A two‐step mechanism is postulated for these nucleophilic additions.
