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.

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.

The reaction of N-methyl-N-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)glycinamide (Ic with methoxide in methanol produces the spiro adduct IIc(A). In methanolic acetate buffers, the equilibrium is rapidly established between the spiro adduct IIc(A) and the dipolar ion of 2-methylamino-N-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)acetamide (IIIc(Z)). The equilibrium constant of the reaction IIIc(Z) ⇆ IIc(A) + H+ is by eight orders of magnitude greater than that of the analogous cyclization of 2-methylamino-N-methyl-N-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)acetamide to the spiro adduct. In chloracetate buffers, the dipolar ion is protonated to give 2-methylammonium-N-(2,4,6-trinitrohenyl)acetamide IIIc(K). The kinetics of the reversible reaction IIIc(Z) ⇆ IIc(A) + H+ has been studied in acetate buffers, aliphatic amine – ammonium salt buffers, and methoxide solutions. In all cases, the rate-limiting step was the proton transfer with half-lives in milliseconds. In more basic methanolic buffers (pH > 10) the rate-limiting step consists in the formation of spiro adduct from the zwiterion IIIc(Z) resulting from the protonation of the anion IIIc(A). n acetate buffers, the second reaction pathway via the cation IIIc(K) is predominant.

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 have been studied of hydrolysis and methanolysis of ethyl 3-ethoxy-3-iminopropanoate. The methanolysis rate constant is lower than the hydrolysis rate constant by about 3 orders of magnitude. The rate-limiting step of the hydrolysis consists in the nucleophilic attack of the protonated substrate by a water molecule, whereas that of the methanolysis consists in the decomposition of tetrahedral intermediate which is several orders of magnitude slower than the decomposition of the intermediate formed in the hydrolysis.

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.

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.
