A study is made on the kinetic salt effect on the reaction of hydrolysis of several charged esters in alkaline media. The results are interpreted on the basis of the coulombic interaction, the salting in of hydroxide ion and a third component depending on size of the substrate.

Salt effects (NaNO3) on the kinetics of the reactions [Fe(CN)6]3– + [Ru(NH3)5(pyz)]2+ = [Fe(CN)6]4– + [Ru(NH3)5(pyz)]3+ (pyz = pyrazine) were studied through T-jump measurements. An abnormal (positive) salt effect on the forward reaction was observed and a normal (negative) effect on the reverse one. These facts imply an asymmetric behavior of anion/cation reactions depending on the charge sign of the oxidant and reductant. The results can be rationalized by using the Marcus–Hush treatment for electron-transfer reactions after decomposition of the experimental rate constants into their components.

No, or at most very small, salt effects have been detected for second-order racemizations of various 1-phenylbromoethanes, confirming that the "mixed kinetics", previously reported for 4-methyl- and 3,4-dimethylphenylbromoethanes with tetrabutylammonium bromide in acetonitrile and nitromethane, did not reflect a salt effect on a unimolecular reaction. Thus the uni- and bimolecular rate components can be evaluated using the equation:[Formula: see text]where k1 = first-order or unimolecular rate constant, the intercept, and [Formula: see text], the latter being the rate constant for the bimolecular substitution. A "special salt effect" was found for the unimolecular component; it was especially pronounced for 3,4-dimethyl substrate in acetonitrile with Bu4NClO4 as the electrolyte. In acetone, where no unimolecular reaction component was detected even with those substrates giving the most stable carbocations, the only salt effect was a common ion, Bu4N+, effect on the incomplete dissociation of Bu4NBr. From an iterative best fit for plots of observed rate versus calculated bromide ion activity for unsubstituted, 4-methyl, and 3,4-dimethyl substrates, Kassoc ~ 15 ± 1 at 40 °C. The results are interpreted as additional support for a progression of mechanism with nucleophilic attack possible at any stage of the series of equilibria: substrate [Formula: see text] contact ion pair [Formula: see text] various solvated ion pairs [Formula: see text] dissociated ions. Keywords: special salt effects, ionic strength effects, racemization of 1-phenylbromoethanes, mechanism of nucleophilic substitution, ion pair mechanism.

Data on the influence of neutral salts on the rates of unimolecular heterolyses of organic substrates, obtained mainly by the verdazyl method, are summarized here. It is assumed that heterolysis takes place with consecutive formation of four ion pairs: contact (CIP), cavity-separated (CSIP), one solvent moleculeseparated (SIP) and solvent-separated (SSIP). [Formula: see text] In the limiting step, the CIP interacts with a solvent cavity and the CSIP is formed, which converts quickly into the SIP and subsequently to the SSIP, which also quickly gives the reaction products. In the transition state, bonds between the molecules solvating the CIP are broken. In the absence of salt, the return from external ion pairs does not have much importance. The verdazyl indicator quickly and quantitatively reacts with the SSIP. The normal salt effect takes place due to the action of salt on the covalent substrate, which catalyses CIP formation. The special salt effect is caused by the association of the salt with the CIP, which prolongs the lifetime of the intermediate and increases the probability of its contact with a solvent cavity. The negative special salt effect is caused by association of the salt with the SIP or SSIP, which prolongs the lifetime of the intermediates and increases the probability of their contact with a solvent cavity to return to the covalent substrate. When the salt reacts with the SIP, the salt effect does not depend on the concentration and nature of verdazyl, but such a dependence takes place when the salt reacts with the SSIP. The site of the action of the salt is determined by the Hard and Soft Acids and Bases (HSAB) principle.

SummaryApplication of the methods of enzyme-kinetic analysis to the results of clotting tests is feasible and can yield useful results. However, the standard methods of enzyme kinetics are not applicable without modifications imposed by the peculiarities of the blood-clotting enzyme system. The influence of the following complicating circumstances is calculated :1. Substrate is not present in excess.2. Only relative measures exist for concentrations of substrate or enzymes.3. Enzymes and substrates are often added together.4. Reagents are not pure.5. Clotting-time is our only measure for clotting-velocity.Formulas are deduced, which makes it possible to recognize the effect of these complications.
