The kinetics of the acylation of d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase from pig muscle by 1,3-diphosphoglycerate in the presence of NAD+ has been analysed by using the relaxation temperature-jump method. At pH7.2 and 8°C the rate of acylation of the NAD+-bound (or holo-) enzyme was 3.3×105m−1·s−1 and the rate of phosphorolysis, the reverse reaction, was 7.5×103m−1·s−1. After a temperature-jump perturbation the equilibrium of NAD+ binding to the acyl-enzyme was re-established more rapidly than that of the acylation. The rate of phosphorolysis of the apoacylenzyme from sturgeon muscle and of aldehyde release from the d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate–apoenzyme complex were ≤40m−1·s−1 and ≤12s−1 respectively at pH8.0 and 22°C, which means that both processes are too slow to contribute significantly to the reaction pathway of the reversible NAD+-linked oxidative phosphorylation of d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Phosphorolysis of both acyl-apoenzyme and acyl-holoenzyme was first-order in Pi up to 100mm-Pi and more. PO43− could be the reactive species of the phosphorolysis of the acyl-holoenzyme, in which case phosphorolysis is a diffusion-controlled reaction, although other kinetically indistinguishable rate equations for the reaction are possible.

Kinetic studies on soil potassium release can contribute to a better understanding of K availability to plants. This study was conducted to evaluate K release rates from the whole soil, clay, silt, and sand fractions of B-horizon samples of a basalt-derived Oxisol and a sienite-derived Ultisol, both representative soils from coffee regions of Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Potassium was extracted from each fraction after eight different shaking time periods (0-665 h) with either 0.001 mol L-1 citrate or oxalate at a 1:10 solid:solution ratio. First-order, Elovich, zero-order, and parabolic diffusion equations were used to parameterize the time dependence of K release. For the Oxisol, the first-order equation fitted best to the experimental data of K release, with similar rates for all fractions and independent of the presence of citrate or oxalate in the extractant solution. For all studied Ultisol fractions, in which K release rates increased when extractions were performed with citrate solution, the Elovich model described K release kinetics most adequately. The highest potassium release rate of the Ultisol silt fraction was probably due to the transference of "non-exchangeable" K to the extractant solution, whereas in the Oxisol exchangeable potassium represented the main K source in all studied fractions.

The kinetics of TBBPA degradation by ozonation in semi-batch reactor was studied. The reaction rate constants of TBBPA with O3 and •OH were measured by means of direct ozone attack and competition kinetics, and the values of which were 6.10 l/(mol•s), 4.8×109 l/(mol•s), respectively. Results of kinetic studies showed that TBBPA degradation by ozonation under the different conditions tested followed the pseudo-first-order. The values of apparent rate constant of TBBPA degradation increased with the increase of ozone dosage and pH, but decreased with the increase of initial TBBPA concentration.

The principal reaction of methyl-bis-β-chloroethylamine in methanol is dimerization, which results in one chlorine from each molecule becoming ionic, but this is accompanied by slight alcoholysis. The rate-controlling step is believed to be the first order formation of an ethylenimonium ion which reacts rapidly with one of its kind to form dimer. The rate expression as calculated from initial rate constants is k (initial) = 4.0 × 1013e−19600/RThr.−1.

A nickel phosphide hydrodeoxygenation catalyst (Ni2P-O/MCM-41) was prepared using a new synthetic method. The as-prepared catalyst was evaluated in the hydrodeoxygenation of benzofuran, and the effects of reaction temperature, pressure, and the H2/liquid ratio were investigated. A pseudo first-order model was employed to describe the reaction kinetics of benzofuran hydrodeoxygenation over the Ni2P-O/MCM-41 catalyst. The reaction rate constants ( k1– k5) at different temperatures were determined according to this model. At 533 K, the conversion of 2-ethylphenol in to ethylbenzene began to increase dramatically, and the yield of O-free product, ethylcyclohexane, started to increase rapidly. At 573 K, 3.0 MPa, and a H2/liquid ratio of 500 (V/V), the conversion of benzofuran over Ni2P-O/MCM-41 reached 93%, and the combined yield of O-free products was 91%. Contact time analysis indicated that demethylation was not favored over the Ni2P-O/MCM-41 catalyst.

Benzoylcholine stands out from other known substrates of serum cholinesterase because of its high apparent affinity for this enzyme combined with a rapid rate of destruction. The reaction kinetics of the hydrolysis of benzoylcholine can be studied by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, since the absorbance decreases in proportion to the concentration of substrate. Kinetic data obtained by measuring initial reaction rates, and by analyzing continuous hydrolysis curves, are the same within the range of experimental error. The enzymatic data are compatible with the assumption that in the presence of high substrate concentrations a complex consisting of esterase and two substrate molecules is formed. This complex is hydrolyzed more slowly than the complex containing one molecule of substrate which is formed at low concentrations of benzoylcholine. Alkaline hydrolysis of benzoylcholine follows the kinetics of a first order reaction.

The kinetics of oxidation of diethanolamine and triethanolamine by potassium ferrate(VI)in alkaline liquids at a constant ionic strength has been studied spectrophotometrically in the temperature range of 278.2K-293.2K. The reaction shows first order dependence on potassium ferrate(VI), first order dependence on each reductant, The observed rate constant (kobs) decreases with the increase in [OH-], the reaction is negative fraction order with respect to [OH-]. A plausible mechanism is proposed and the rate equations derived from the mechanism can explain all the experimental results. The rate constants of the rate-determining step and the thermodynamic activation parameters are calculated.

In this paper the model developed for estimation of the diffusion coefficient of the molecules in the triplet state is presented. The model is based on the intuitive modification of the Smoluchowski equation for the time-dependent rate parameter. Since the sample is irradiated with the spatially periodic pattern nonexponential effects can be expected in the areas of the constructive interference of the exciting laser beams. This nonexponential effects introduce changes in the observed kinetics of the diffusion-controlled triplet-triplet annihilation. Due to irradiation with so-called long excitation pulse these non-exponential effects are very weak, so they can be described with introducing very simple correction to the kinetic model described in the first paper of this series. The values of diffusion coefficient of anthracene are used to calculate the annihilation radius from the data for spatially homogeneous excitation.

The present work aims the elimination of an organic dye Methylene Blue (MB) by adsorption on the polyacrylamide (PAAM) hydrogel. Several experiments series were then carried out in order to study the influence on the adsorption capacity of certain parameters such as the mass of the adsorbent, the pH, the contact time, the initial dye concentration and the temperature. The maximal capacity is 1620 mg/g it was obtained at T = 25°C, pH = 6, [BM] = 200 ppm and 0.013g of the adsorbent. The adsorption kinetics of the dye on the support is well described by the first-order model. The adsorption isotherms of the adsorbent/adsorbate systems studied are satisfactorily described by the Langmuir mathematical model. On the other hand, the thermodynamic study revealed that adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic.

t-Butylbenzylamine (t-BA) is used as a free base in the synthesis of salbutamol drug. Its mechanism of oxidation was proposed from kinetic studies. The kinetics of oxidation oft-butylbenzylamine by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) was studied spectrophotometrically by monitoring decrease in absorbance of DPA. The reaction was found to be first order each in [DPA] and [t-BA]. The effect of alkali concentration in a wide range on rate of reaction was studied. The rate of reaction was found to be increased with increase in [OH–] in the lower range of [OH–], decreasing effect in the middle range and at higher range again increasing effect on rate of reaction was observed. The added periodate retarded the rate of reaction. The polymerization test revealed that oxidation was occurred with the intervention free radical. A suitable mechanism was proposed for a middle range of [OH–]. The active species of silver(III) periodate for all the three different stages of [OH–] are assayed. Rate law was derived and verified. The oxidative product oft-BA was characterized by LC-ESI-MS spectra.

Abstract The oxidation of tungsten and molybdenum occurs by two consecutive reactions, forming first a suboxide then the trioxide. Tantalum and columbium oxidize by four simultaneous reactions: solution of oxygen in the metal, nucleation and growth of a suboxide phase at the metal surface and two phase boundary processes giving rise to two different modifications of the pentoxide. By assuming that all reactions are first order complex chain reactions, rate equations are formulated giving the rate of oxidation as a function of pressure, temperature and time. Regression rate expressions for the metals tungsten, tantalum and columbium above 700 C are given as;; and, respectively. The rate is expressed in cm/hr, T is in degrees K and Po2 in atmospheres pressure of oxygen. 3.8.4, 2.1,1, 6.3.5, 6.3.16, 6.3.13
