Summary:beta -Deuterium secondary isotope effects for the phosphonylation of the active site serine of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by phosphonyl derivatives at 25 degree C and pH 7.70 in 0.05 M phosphate buffer are described in this report. The results indicate an increase in the force constants for the CL (L = H, D) bonds adjacent to phosphorus at the transition state for phosphonylation. This trend is pronounced in the AChE reaction, conceivably due to a more compressed structure at the transition state for the AChE reaction in comparison to the imidazole-catalyzed hydrolysis of the phosphonyl derivatives.
