Kinetic Treatment

To facilitate mechanistic interpretation of the kinetics of time-dependent inhibition of enzymes and of similar protein modification reactions, it is important to know when the equilibrium assumption may be applied to the model: formula: (see text). The conventional criterion of quasi-equilibrium, k + 2 less than k-1, is not always easy to assess, particularly when k + 2 cannot be separately determined. It is demonstrated that the condition k + 2 less than k-1 is necessarily true, however, when the value of the apparent second-order rate constant for the modification reaction is much smaller than the value of k + 1. Since k + 1 is commonly at least 10(7)M-1.S-1 for substrates, it is probable that the equilibrium assumption may be properly applied to most irreversible inhibitions and modification reactions.

Oxidation of Ni2+,aq, by S2O82- to nickel(IV) in the presence of molybdate ion, as in the analogous manganese system, involves the formation of the soluble heteropolymolybdate anion [MMogO32]2- (M = Ni, Mn ). The nickel(IV) product crystallized as (NH4)6 [NiMogO32].6H2O from the reaction mixture in the rhombohedra1 space group R3, a 15.922(1), c 12.406(1) � ; the structure was determined by X-ray diffraction methods, and refined to a residual of 0.025 for 1741 independent 'observed' reflections. The kinetics of the oxidation were examined at 80 C over the pH range 3.0-5.2; a linear dependence on [S2O82-] and a non-linear dependence on l/[H+] were observed. The influence of variation of the Ni/Mo ratio between 1:10 and 1:25 on the observed rate constant was very small at pH 4.5, a result supporting the view that the precursor exists as the known [NiMo6O24H6]4- or a close analogue in solution. The pH dependence of the observed rate constant at a fixed oxidant concentration (0.025 mol dm-3) fits dequately to the expression kobs = kH [H+]/(Ka+[H+]) where kH = 0.0013 dm3 mol-1 s-1 and Ka = 4-0x10-5. The first-order dependence on peroxodisulfate subsequently yields a second-order rate constant of 0.042 dm3 mol-1 s-1. Under analogous conditions, oxidation of manganese(II) occurs eightfold more slowly than oxidation of nickel(II), whereas oxidation of manganese(II) by peroxomonosulfuric acid is 16-fold faster than oxidation by peroxodisulfate under similar conditions.
