Reaction rates of 4-haloquinoline 1-oxides, 4-haloquinolines, 4-halo-1-nitronaphthalenes, and 4-halo-1-acetonaphthone with piperidine were compared. Rate coefficients, heat constants of activation, and entropies of activation were calculated. 4-Haloquinoline 1-oxides were most reactive and activating power of the N-oxide group was greater than that of the nitro group.
