1. The oxidation of p-dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine was followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the change in E250 caused by the p-dimethylaminomethylbenzaldehyde produced under a wide variety of experimental conditions. 2. The effect of variations in concentrations of both substrates (amine and oxygen) and all products (aminoaldehyde, hydrogen peroxide and ammonia) on this reaction was studied and the results used to develop a formal mechanism. 3. The nature of the rate-limiting step was elucidated by studying the effects of alterations in ionic strength, dielectric constant and deuterium substitution on the velocity of the forward reaction. 4. Thermodynamic activation energy parameters were obtained at several pH values from the effects of temperature on the reaction.

The cyclization reaction kinetics of phenylglyoxal monohydrate with 1,2-diaminobenzene have been studied in formate, acetate, and phosphate buffers. At high pH values and low buffer concentrations the rate-limiting step consists in the protonation of the intermediate formed by addition of the first amino group to aldehydic group of phenylglyoxal. With increasing concentrations of formate and acetate buffers the rate-limiting step shifts to the formation of the intermediate. In phosphate buffers the catalysis by the basic buffer component makes itself felt, too. At higher concentrations of 1,2-diaminobenzene, the dehydration of phenylglyoxal monohydrate gradually becomes the rate-limiting step.

Kinetics of formation of 2-imino-4-thiazolidone from S-ethoxycarbonylmethylisothiouronium chloride has been studied in aqueous buffers and dilute hydrochloric acid. The reaction is subject to general base catalysis, the β value being 0.65. Its rate limiting step consists in acid-catalyzed splitting off of ethoxide ion from dipolar tetrahedral intermediate. At pH < 2 formation of this intermediate becomes rate-limiting; rate constant of its formation is 2 . 104 s-1.

The cyclization kinetics of N-(2-methylcarbonylphenyl)-N’-methylsulfonamide (IIb) into 3-methyl-(1H)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide (Ib) has been studied in ethanolamine, morpholine, and butylamine buffers and in potassium hydroxide solution. The cyclization is subject to general base and general acid catalysis. The value of the Bronsted coefficient β is about 0.1, which indicates that splitting off of the proton from negatively charged tetrahedral intermediate represents the rate-limiting and thermodynamically favourable step. In the solutions of potassium hydroxide the cyclization of dianion of the starting ester IIb probably becomes the rate-limiting step.

1. The purification of monoamine oxidase and diamine oxidase from normal human term placental tissue is described. 2. The properties of these enzymes are reported and compared with the properties of unpurified human pregnancy plasma. 3. This comparison shows that the amine oxidase of pregnancy plasma has properties corresponding to purified placental diamine oxidase, suggesting a placental origin for the plasma enzyme system. 4. Detailed kinetic study of the purified placental diamine oxidase suggests that it has a Ping Pong sequence, a mechanism of action and rate-limiting step similar to the diamine oxidase of pig kidney. 5. It is suggested that the enzyme system is important in protecting the foeto-placental unit from excesses of biogenic amines.

1. The kinetics of oxidation of butan-1-ol and propan-2-ol by NAD+, catalysed by yeast alcohol dehydrogenase, were studied at 25 degrees C from pH 5.5 to 10, and at pH 7.05 from 14 degrees to 44 degrees C, 2. Under all conditions studied the results are consistent with a mechanism whereby some dissociation of coenzyme from the active enzyme-NAD+-alcohol ternary complexes occurs, and the mechanism is therefore not strictly compulsory order. 3. A primary 2H isotopic effect on the maximum rates of oxidation of [1-2H2]butan-1-ol and [2H7]propan-2-ol was found at 25 degrees C over the pH range 5.5-10. Further, in stopped-flow experiments at pH 7.05 and 25 degrees C, there was no transient formation of NADH in the oxidation of butan-1-ol and propan-2-ol. The principal rate-limiting step in the oxidation of dependence on pH of the maximum rates of oxidation of butan-1-ol and propan-2-ol is consisten with the possibility that histidine and cysteine residues may affect or control catalysis.

Kinetics of oxidation of 1- and 2-acetylnaphthalenes by iodate in the presence of sulphuric acid in aqueous methanol has been studied. The reaction is first order with respect to both [iodate] and [acetylnaphthalene]. Solvent effect indicates a cation-dipole type of interaction in the rate limiting step. A mechanism is proposed with a slow attack of IO2+ on enol form of acetylnaphthalene forming an intermediate carbonium ion, which ultimately gives corresponding ω-hydroxyacetylnaphthalene. The higher reactivity of 2-acetyl isomer is attributed to the greater stability of the corresponding carbonium ion than that of 1-acetyl isomer.

The reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzene with 2,3-butanedione is subject to general acid catalysis in acetate and phosphate buffers (pH 4-7). The rate-limiting step of formation of 2,3-dimethylquinoxaline consists in the protonation of dipolar tetrahedral intermediate. In the case of the reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzene with ethyl 2-oxopropanoate, the dehydration of carbinolamine gradually becomes rate-limiting with increasing pH in acetate buffers, whereas in phosphate buffers a new reaction pathway makes itself felt, viz. the formation of amide catalyzed by the basic buffer component and by hydroxide ion.
