The kinetics of the reaction between trans-[IrCl(CO)(PPh3)2] and a series of 2,4-dinitrophenyl-4-substituted-phenyl disulfides, YC6H4SSC6H3(NO2)2 (Y = Br, F, H, CH3, or CH3O) have been investigated in toluene between 70 and 90°. These reactions were found to follow simple second order kinetics, rate = k2[IrCl(CO)(PPh3)2][YC6H4SSC6H3(NO2)2]. The rates of reaction were also found to be insensitive to the nature of the para substituent, Y. This fact together with the observed activation parameters, ΔH≠ ~ 17 kcal mol−1 and ΔS≠ ~ − 19 cal mol−1 deg−1, have been interpreted as indicating that the initial step in these reactions involves a nucleophilic attack by the iridium atom at the sulfur atom bonded to the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group, followed by the formation of a three-centered transition state. An overall mechanism for these reactions is presented and discussed.

The ultraviolet spectroscopy method has been applied to study the kinetics of the ozone reactions with nitrogenous bases (NB), namely adenine and cytosine in aqueous solutions. At the first research stage, the range of NB working concentrations has been determined. It was found that linear dependences between optical densities and concentrations of nitrogenous bases aqueous solutions are quite reliable, with correlation coefficients r ≥ 0.998, are satisfied up to [NB] = 2.3 ∙ 10–4 mol/l. According to the Bouguer-Lambert-Beer law, adenine and cytosine extinction coefficients in aqueous solutions were determined and subsequently used to calculate their residual concentrations. At the next stage, the kinetics of nitrogenous bases ozonized oxidation was studied with equal initial concentrations of the starting substances ([NB]0 = [О3]0). The results revealed that the kinetic consumption curves of the starting reagents are fairly well linearized (r ≥ 0.996) in the second-order reaction equation coordinates. As found with the bubbling installation, 1 mol of the absorbed ozone falls on 1 mol of the used NB. Thus, the reactions of ozone with adenine and cytosine explicitly proceed according to the second-order kinetic laws (the first – according to О3 and the first – according to NB). The rate constants were calculated by the integral reaction equations, the values of which indicate a higher ozone reactivity in relation to nitrogen bases. The temperature dependences of the second-order rate constants was studied ranging 285-309 K, and the activation parameters (pre-exponential factors and activation energies) of the ozone reactions with adenine and cytosine in aqueous solutions were determined.

The kinetics of the acid-catalysed reaction of prop-2-en-1-ol and 2-methylprop-2-en-1-ol have been measured. The relative reactivity, solvent isotope ( kH+/kD +) and change in acidity effects, and activation parameters, have been determined and found to be similar to those of other alkenes. While this correlation of results for the hydration of both these alkenols can be interpreted in terms of the conventional Ad-E2 mechanism, computed values for the lifetime of possible carbocation intermediates suggest that an alternative mechanism for the reaction of prop-2-en-1-ol, in which nucleophilic attack by the solvent is concerted with protonation, is feasible.

Abstract The plastic flow associated with the three main methods of combining deformation mechanisms is described in terms of deformation kinetics. It is shown that the determination of the deformation kinetics as the initial step in the analysis is indispensable to the establishment of the activation parameters in functional forms. To this purpose, the effects of stress and temperature on the plastic strain rate are determined for three types of combined mechanisms, and qualitative comparison with experimental results is presented.

Kinetics of the oxidation of 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol with tetraalkylammonium permanganates have been investigated as function of temperature. The studied reactions are partly autocatalytic, colloidal manganese dioxide as one of the reaction products has been identified as the autocatalyst.A computerized iterative procedure has been used in order to obtained the rate constants of both non-catalytic and catalytic reaction steps together with the thermodynamic activation parameters.

The kinetics have been studied of reactions of the cluster Ru3(CO)11 (P(OEt)3) with a variety of P- and As-donor nucleophiles, L, in alkane solution. Reactions proceed according to the rate equation: kobsd = k1 + k2 [L] and activation parameters for the two paths have been obtained. When combined with activation parameters for Ru3(CO)12 and some other Ru3(CO)11L′ clusters the values of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are found to lie on a good isokinetic plot. The changes in the activation parameters are consistent with major and systematic changes in the nature of the Ru3(CO)10L′ moieties left after CO dissociation.Analysis of the dependence of log k2 on the electronic and steric nature of the various nucleophiles leads to the derivation of electronic and steric profiles that are characteristic of the cluster, together with values for the intrinsic or standard susceptibility of the cluster towards nucleophilic attack. These kinetic characteristics are compared with those similarly derived for Ru3(CO)12. Keywords: metal carbonyls, ruthenium, clusters, kinetics, mechanisms.

The second-order rate constants have been measured over a range of temperatures for the proton-transter reactions from di-(4-nitrophenyl)methane to ethoxide, isopropoxide, and t-butoxide ions in solvents consisting of the corresponding alcohols containing 10% toluene by volume. The activation parameters ΔH≠ and ΔS≠ have been calculated and an interpretation of them is given in terms of solvation effects during the activation process. A comparison between the activation parameters for proton transfers and E2 olefin-forming β-elimination reactions is made and discussed with respect to transition state character of the latter reactions.

A kinetic study of the aqua substitution in the [TcO(OH2)(CN)4]− complex by different thiourea ligands (TU = thiourea, NMTU = N-methyl thiourea, NNDMTU = N, N′-dimethylthiourea) yielded second-order formation rate constants (25∘C) as follows [NNDMTU, NMTU, TU, respectively]: kf = 11.5 ± 0.1, 11.38 ± 0.04, and 7.4 ± 0.1 M−1s−1, with activation parameters: ΔHkf#:55±2, 42±3, 35±5 kJ mol−1; ΔSkf#:−40±8, −84±11, −110±17 J K−1mol−1. A subsequent high-pressure investigation of the aqua substitution in the [ReO(OH2)(CN)4]− and [TcO(OH2)(CN4)]− complexes by selected entering ligands yielded ΔVkf# values as follows: Re(V): −1.7±0.3(NCS−), −22.1±0.9 (TU) and for Tc(V): −3.5±0.3(NCS−), −14±1 (NNDMTU), and−6.0±0.5 (TU) cm3mol−1, respectively. These results point to an interchange associative mechanism for the negative NCS− as entering group but even a pure associative mechanism for the neutral thiourea ligands.

The pH-dependence of the second order rate constants of the reaction of papain with bromoacetamide in the pH-range 5,5-8,5 is described by a curve with a turning point corresponding to a pK 7,3 ± 0,1 at 25°. This is the pK of a catalytically essential imidazole residue. The activation parameters of the reaction of papain with bromoacetamide were determined. The second order rate constants at pH 7 for the reaction is 200 times greater than for the reaction of bromoacetamide with simple SH-compounds.

The kinetics of the electron transfer reaction of NADH with 12-tungstocobaltate(III) has been studied over the range 5.07 ≤ 104[NADH] ≤ 15.22 mol dm-3, 7.0 ≤ pH ≤ 8.0 and 20 ≤ t ≤ 35oC in aqueous medium. The electron transfer reaction showed first-order dependence each in [NADH]Tand [12-tungstocobaltate(III)]T. The products of the reaction were found to be NAD+and 12-tungstocobaltate(II). The activation parameters ΔH#(kJ mol-1) and ΔS#(JK-1mol-1) of the electron transfer reactions were found to be 64.4±1.8 and -48.86±6.0. Negative value of ΔS#is an indicative of an ordered transition state for the electron transfer reaction.

The second-order rate constants have been determined for the β-elimination reactions of 2,2-di-(p-nitrophenyl)-1,1,1-trifluoroethane, 2,2-di-(p-nitrophenyl)-1-fluoroethane, and their β-deuterated analogues with sodium methoxide in methanol. The primary isotope effects and activation parameters for these reactions are reported. It is suggested that the trifluoro-compound reacts via the pre-equilibrium carbanion mechanism (ElcB)R and that the monofluoro compound follows the E2 mechanism via a carbanion-like transition state.
