The title liquid-phase isothermal esterification kinetics have been measured in the temperature intervals of 110-125 and 110-160 °C for 2,4- and 2,6-diisopropylphenols, resp. The values measured have been used to calculate the rate constants of the respective three steps and to determine the activation energies. 2,6-Diisopropylphenol has been found to react only to the first degree, and the rate constants of the other two reaction steps (k2, k3) were only calculated from the differential equations given by means of a computer.

The kinetics of liquid-phase isothermal esterification of POCl3 with 2-isopropylphenol and 4-isopropylphenol have been studied within the temperature intervals of 110 to 130 and 90 to 110 °C, respectively. The rate constants and activation energies of the individual steps of this three-step reaction have been calculated from the values measured. The reaction rates of the two isomers markedly differ: at 110 °C 4-isopropylphenol reacts faster by the factors of about 7 and 20 for k1 and k3, respectively. This finding can be utilized in preparation of mixed triaryl phosphates, since the alkylation mixture after reaction of phenol with propene contains an excess of 2-isopropylphenol over 4-isopropylphenol.

The reaction of DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) with N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine, N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine, diphenylamine, and methylaniline has been studied and has been shown to be primarily a hydrogen abstraction process. Two moles DPPH react with 1–1.15 moles secondary amine to give 1.7–1.8 moles 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine and further products.The reaction between DPPH and N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine is first order with respect to each reactant. The reaction of DPPH with the other amines is retarded by the major product 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine and the kinetics of the over-all reaction are complex. However second-order rate constants and activation energies have been obtained using initial rates of reaction. Possible reaction mechanisms are discussed.

The liquid-phase esterification kinetics of phenol with POCl3 has been studied at isothermal conditions within the temperature interval from 90 to 110 °C. The esterification rate constants of the first, second, and third esterification steps and the activation energies of these steps have been calculated. The given system of competitive consecutive reactions can be described by a system of differential equations which has been solved by the Gauss-Newton optimization method of non-linear regression in the Marquardt modification. In the sequence of the first, second, and third step the esterification rate constants have been found to gradually decrease, whereas the activation energies uncrease in the same sequence.

The kinetics of the reaction of solid sodium carbonate with sulfur dioxide depends on the microstructure of the solid, which in turn is affected by the way and conditions of its preparation. The active form, analogous to that obtained by thermal decomposition of NaHCO3, emerges from the dehydration of Na2CO3 . 10 H2O in a vacuum or its weathering in air at room temperature. The two active forms are porous and have approximately the same specific surface area. Partial hydration of the active Na2CO3 in air at room temperature followed by thermal dehydration does not bring about a significant decrease in reactivity. On the other hand, if the preparation of anhydrous Na2CO3 involves, partly or completely, the liquid phase, the reactivity of the product is substantially lower.

Liquid 1,2-dichloroethane has been chlorinated by dissolved chlorine to a succession of chloroethanes up to the ultimate hexachloroethane. The results of both batch and continuous stirred tank reactor systems have been analysed by computer techniques to give a set of relative rate constants from which one can predict the product composition for a given chlorine uptake, the aim in this work being to optimize the production of tetrachloroethanes. An unusual feature of the kinetics is that 1,1,1,2- and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethanes provide alternative pathways between 1,1,2-trichloroethane and pentachloroethane.

AbstractThe linear free energy relationship log k = sN(N + E) (eq. 1), in which E is an electrophilicity, N is a nucleophilicity, and sN is a nucleophile-dependent sensitivity parameter, is a reliable tool for predicting rate constants of bimolecular electrophile-nucleophile combinations. Nucleophilicity scales that are based on eq. (1) rely on a set of structurally similar benzhydrylium ions (Ar2CH+) as reference electrophiles. As steric effects are not explicitely considered, eq. (1) cannot unrestrictedly be employed for reactions of bulky substrates. Since, on the other hand, the reactions of tritylium ions (Ar3C+) with hydride donors, alcohols, and amines were found to follow eq. (1), tritylium ions turned out to be complementary tools for probing organic reactivity. Kinetics of the reactions of Ar3C+ with π-nucleophiles (olefins), n-nucleophiles (amines, alcohols, water), hydride donors and ambident nucleophiles, such as the anions of 5-substituted Meldrum’s acids, are discussed to analyze the applicability of tritylium ions as reference electrophiles.

The late photoproducts that result from the isomerization of rhodopsin have been identified in the isolated all-rod retina of the skate by means of rapid spectrophotometry. The sequence in which these intermediates form and decay could be described by a scheme that incorporates two pathways for the degradation of metarhodopsin II (MII) to retinol: one via metarhodopsin III (MIII) and the other (which bypasses MIII) through retinal. Computer simulation of the model yielded rate constants and spectral absorbance coefficients for the late photoproducts which fit experimental data obtained at temperatures ranging from 7 degrees C to 27 degrees C. Comparing the kinetics of the thermal reactions with the changes in rod threshold that occur during dark adaptation indicated that the decay of MII and the fall in receptor thresholds exhibit similarities with regard to their temperature dependence. However, the addition of 2 mM hydroxylamine to a perfusate bathing the retina greatly accelerated the photochemical reactions, but had no significant effect on the rate of recovery of rod sensitivity. It appears, therefore, that the late bleaching intermediates do not control the sensitivities of skate rods during dark adaptation.

The kinetics of oxidation of thiocyanate to sulphate by aqueous iodine in the pH range 9.2-12.5 have been studied using a spectrophotometric stopped flow technique. The reaction is general base-catalysed, having the rate law ��������������������� -d[I2]a/dt = ([SCN-][I3-]/[I-]2)Σ kB[B] where [I2]a is the total analytical concentration of iodine, [B] is the concentration of base, and where the summation is taken over all bases present. Rate constants, kB, and activation energies have been measured for the bases, OH-, PO43- and CO32-. ��� A mechanism involving the initial steps ����������������� I2+SCN- ↔ ISCN+I- �����������������(rapid equilibrium) ������������� ISCN+H2O+B → HOSCN+I- + HB+ �����������(rate determining) followed by rapid reactions of HOSCN with itself or with iodine is proposed.

Rate constants, activation energies, and dissociation constants were determined in a kinetic study of the synthesis and decomposition of a number of N-substituted dithiocarbamates. These data combined with certain spectral evidence are evaluated and reaction mechanisms suggested.

The kinetics of ring openings of a series of eight (trans-2-arylcyclopropyl)methyl radicals (1) were studied by indirect kinetic methods using Barton's PTOC esters as radical precursors and reaction with PhSeH as the competition reaction. The substituents were CF3, F, Me, and OMe located on both the para and meta positions of the aromatic ring. Syntheses of the radical precursors and the products of the radical reactions are described. Kinetics were determined between -43 and 25°C in four cases (CF3 and OMe substituents) and at 0 and 25°C in the other four cases. The rate constants at 25°C ranged from 1.0 × 1011 s-1 (p-CH3) to 4.1 × 1011 s-1 (p-CF3). The relatively large acceleration of the p-CF3 group, ca. 2.5 times as fast as the parent system with Ar = Ph, correlates well with Adam's ΔD substituent parameters but not with other radical substituent parameters. These calibrated radical rearrangements provide a new set of ultrafast reactions that can be applied in mechanistic probe studies.Key words: cyclopropylcarbinyl radical, kinetics, PTOC esters, benzeneselenol.
