The kinetics of formation of mono- and dicarbonyl complexes in two successive stages by direct carbonylation of ruthenium(II) chlorides in dimethylacetamide solution have been studied at 65–80° and up to 1 atm CO by gas uptake techniques. Both stages are first order in ruthenium. Formation of the monocarbonyl is independent of CO pressure; dicarbonyl formation is first order in CO at low pressures with the order decreasing towards zero with increasing pressure, and shows an inverse chloride dependence from 0.1–2.0 M added chloride. For both stages, the data are consistent with a mechanism involving predissociation. A similar mechanism is suggested for the corresponding reactions in 3 M HCl solution which had been studied earlier and which showed overall second-order kinetics.Discussion on the related formation of molecular nitrogen complexes of ruthenium(II) is presented.

The kinetics of disproportionation and ferricyanide ion oxidation of the 10-methylacridinium cation have been measured spectrophotometrically over the pH range 9–14 in.20% CH3CN – 80% H2O (v/v) and ionic strength 1.0 at 25 °C. Disproportionation is kinetically second-order in total acridine species. The pH–rate profile is consistent with the rate-determining reaction of one acridinium cation with the pseudobase alkoxide anion derived from a second acridinium cation. Ferricyanide ion oxidation is kinetically first-order in each of ferricyanide ion and total acridine species. The pH–rate profile requires three distinct pathways for the ferricyanide ion oxidation of the 10-methylacridinium cation. For pH < 9.7, rate-determining attack of ferricyanide ion on the neutral pseudobase predominates, while for pH > 12.8 the predominant oxidation pathway involves reaction of ferricyanide ion with the pseudobase alkoxide ion. Between pH 9.7 and 12.8, the major oxidation pathway involves initial disproportionation of the acridinium cation followed by ferricyanide ion oxidation of the 9,10-dihydro-10-methylacridine product. This latter route accounts for a maximum of 69% of the total ferricyanide ion oxidation at pH 11.1.


Previous work on the acetaldehyde pyrolysis is shown to be vitiated by the presence, in the acetaldehyde, of impurities, mainly ethanol and crotonaldehyde. The reaction has been reinvestigated with the use of acetaldehyde, prepared from paraldehyde, which is free from these and other impurities. On the basis of a study of the kinetics of formation of the major products (methane and carbon monoxide) and of a number of minor products (hydrogen, acetone, propionaldehyde, ethane and ethylene) a reaction mechanism is proposed. This includes all of the reactions in the original Rice-Herzfeld scheme, together with a number of other elementary processes, in particular CH 3 + CH 3 CHO → CH 4 + CH 2 CHO. The decomposition of the radical CH 2 CHO into CH 2 CO and H provides an additional source of hydrogen, the rate of production of which is therefore not a measure of the rate of the initiation process. Acetone is believed to arise mainly by the reaction CH 3 + CH 3 CHO → CH 3 COCH 3 + H, and only to a negligible extent by the combination of CH 3 and CH 3 CO. The main chain-ending step is concluded to be CH 3 + CH 3 → C 2 H 6 , with a small contribution from CH 3 + CH 2 CHO → CH 3 CH 2 CHO. The work provides further evidence for the falling off, at low pressures, of the second order coefficient for the combination of methyl radicals. Rate constants for various elementary processes are deduced from the rates of formation of the various products, and are shown to be consistent with values obtained directly.

The formation of nitrogen monomers by the reaction of Ru(NH3)5(H2O)2+ and cis-Ru(NH3)4(H2O)22+ with N2 has been shown to be first order in N2 and second order overall. The formation of bridging N2 dimers by the reaction of the ruthenium(II) pentaammine and tetraammine with the monomers has been shown to be second order overall.The reactions were studied in a H2SO4–K2SO4 electrolyte pH 3.3, μ = 0.30. The ruthenium(II) species were prepared by controlled potential reduction of known ruthenium(III) species at −0.50 V at a Hg cathode. The reactions of the reduced species with N2 or the monomers were followed spectrophotometrically.The second order rate constant at 25 °C and the activation energy for the substrate Ru(NH3)5(H2O)2+ with the respective nucleophiles are: N2, 8.0 × 10−2 M−1 s−1, 22.0 ± 0.1 kcal/mole; Ru(NH3)5N22+, 3.6 × 10−2 M−1 s−1, 19.9 ± 0.5 kcal/mole; Ru(NH3)4(H2O)N22+, 2.7 × 10−2 M−1 s−1, 20.4 ± 0.8 kcal/mole. For the substrate cis-Ru(NH3)4(H2O)22+ the values are: N2, 1.0 × 10−1 M−1 s−1, 20.4 ± 0.2 kcal/mole; Ru(NH3)5N22+, 6.8 × 10−2 M−1 s−1, 18.2 ± 0.1 kcal/mole; Ru(NH3)4(H2O)N22+, 7.2 × 10−2 M −1 s−1, 17.1 ± 0.2 kcal/mole.

The kinetics of oxidation of chitosan as polysaccharide by permanganate in aqueous perchlorate media at a constant ionic strength was found to have second-order overall kinetics and to be first-order in the concentration of both reactants, the results obtained showed that the reaction is acid catalysed.

The kinetics of the reduction of nitrogen oxide by carbon monoxide on CuO/Al2O3 catalyst (8.36 mass % CuO) were determined at temperatures between 413 and 473 K. The reaction was found to be first order in NO and zero order in CO. The observed kinetics are consistent with a rate equation derived from a mechanism proposed on the basis of IR spectroscopic measurements.

The kinetics of nucleophilic substitution reactions of 1-(phenoxycarbonyl)pyridinium ions, prepared with the essentially non-nucleophilic/non-basic fluoroborate as the counterion, have been studied using up to 1.60 M methanol in acetonitrile as solvent and under solvolytic conditions in 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) and its mixtures with water. Under the non- solvolytic conditions, the parent and three pyridine-ring-substituted derivatives were studied. Both second-order (first-order in methanol) and third-order (second-order in methanol) kinetic contributions were observed. In the solvolysis studies, since solvent ionizing power values were almost constant over the range of aqueous TFE studied, a Grunwald–Winstein equation treatment of the specific rates of solvolysis for the parent and the 4-methoxy derivative could be carried out in terms of variations in solvent nucleophilicity, and an appreciable sensitivity to changes in solvent nucleophilicity was found.

This study aimed to investigate the kinetics of phenolic compound modification during the fermentation of maize flour at different times. Maize was spontaneously fermented into sourdough at varying times (24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 h) and, at each point, the pH, titratable acidity (TTA), total soluble solids (TSS), phenolic compounds (flavonoids such as apigenin, kaempferol, luteolin, quercetin, and taxifolin) and phenolic acids (caffeic, gallic, ferulic, p-coumaric, sinapic, and vanillic acids) were investigated. Three kinetic models (zero-, first-, and second-order equations) were used to determine the kinetics of phenolic modification during the fermentation. Results obtained showed that fermentation significantly reduced pH, with a corresponding increase in TTA and TSS. All the investigated flavonoids were significantly reduced after fermentation, while phenolic acids gradually increased during fermentation. Among the kinetic models adopted, first-order (R2 = 0.45–0.96) and zero-order (R2 = 0.20–0.82) equations best described the time-dependent modifications of free and bound flavonoids, respectively. On the other hand, first-order (R2 = 0.46–0.69) and second-order (R2 = 0.005–0.28) equations were best suited to explain the degradation of bound and free phenolic acids, respectively. This study shows that the modification of phenolic compounds during fermentation is compound-specific and that their rates of change may be largely dependent on their forms of existence in the fermented products.

Plasma method is used to synthesize manganese ferrite. The basic properties of ferrite are determined by IR spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy, X-ray phase analysis, vibration magnetometry. The paper shows that the use of magnetically controlled sorbent allows to purify waste waters from chromium (III). The process of adsorption of chromium cations (III) is investigated. The kinetics of the process is studied. To describe the equilibrium isotherms, the experimental data are analysed by the models of Langmuir, Freundlich isotherms. Pseudo-first order, pseudo-second-order, and Weber-Morris are used to elucidate the kinetic parameters and mechanism of the adsorption process. It has been established that the removal of Cr (III) cations is described by the pseudo-second order of the Langmuir reaction and mechanism.
