Iron(III)-bipyridine complex was prepared andcharacterized by UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Kineticstudy was carried out by using this iron(III)-bipyridinewith thiodipropionic acid in aqueous acetonitrile solution.The reaction was optimized by studying the effect onsubstrate, solvent, oxidant, acidity and temperature. Firstorder, second order rate constants and activationparameters were calculated. The above reaction wasfound to be second order and proceeded through electrontransfer from thiodipropionic acid to iron(III)-bipyridinecomplex. The product was characterized and confirmedby IR and NMR spectroscopy.Keywords: Thiodipropionic acid, Iron(III)-bipyridine complex,kinetic study of Iron(III)-bipyridyl complexes.

The kinetic study of the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylacetate in the presence of primary thiols indicates the thiolate anion as the sole catalytic species. Comparison of the true second order rate constants (kRS−) reveals that purely aliphatic primary thiols behave differently from aromatic α-substituted primary thiols. In the latter group a correlation can be established between the true second order rate constants and the pKSH values by means of the Brönsted equation log kRS− = βpKSH + C, with β equal to 0.40 and C equal to −0.85.

Spectral changes and rates of reaction of flavins and several radical species have been investigated at pH 7, 9, and 10 in the presence and absence of β-mercaptoethanol. The radicals •CO2−, eaq−, and [Formula: see text] reacted with FAD at pH 10 to give a spectrum of FAD •Fl− with rate constants of 7 ± 1 × 108 and 4 ± 1 × 108 M−1 s−1 for •CO2− and [Formula: see text] respectively. At pH 7 only •FlH was observed and at pH 9 a mixture of •FIH and •Fl−.Interactions between flavin radicals and sulphydryl at 10−4 M concentration did not cause perturbations in the uv–visible spectra until either the radical and/or the sulphydryl were ionized. With FAD at pH 9 or 10 and LFl at pH 10 the 370 nm peak of •Fl− was enhanced by about 15% and a second larger growth occurred near 450 nm in the presence of 10−4 to 10−2 M sulphydryl. We attribute this to the formation of labile intermediate RSHFl•−, which must also be involved in the reduction of Fl by [Formula: see text] at pH 9 or 10.The second order rate constant k13 for reaction of [Formula: see text] with FAD at pH 9 and 10 was found to be 4.2 ± 0.5 × 108 M−1 s−1 and 2.0 ± 0.4 × 108 M−1 s−1 respectively. The rate constant for the reaction between [Formula: see text] and LFl at pH 10 was slightly faster, 7 ± 1 × 108 M−1 s−1, probably reflecting the fact that LFl lacks the bulky negatively charged adenine dinucleotide group of FAD.

The second-order rate constants and activation parameters for the addition of 1,10-phenanthroline to bis(dialkyldithiophosphato)nickel(II) complexes and substituted bis(monothioacetylacetonato)-nickel(II) complexes in toluene have been measured. Rate constants are in the range 102-108 1. mol-1 s-1 at 25°C, while ΔH‡ is in the range 10-50 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ is in the range from -30 to -110 J mol-1 K-1. The higher rate constants, smaller ΔH‡ and more negative ΔS‡ values are associated with complexes with electron- withdrawing substituents. The results are related to the thermo- dynamics of adduct formation, the inductive effects of the substituents and the pKa of the ligands.

SummaryRecombinant chimaeric molecules between tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and single chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (scu-PA) or two chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (tcu-PA) have intact enzymatic properties of scu-PA or tcu-PA towards natural and synthetic substrates (Nelles et al., J Biol Chem 1987; 262: 10855-10862). In the present study, we have compared the reactivity with inhibitors of both the single chain and two chain variants of recombinant u-PA and two recombinant chimaeric molecules between t-PA and scu-PA (t-PA/u-PA-s: amino acids 1-263 of t-PA and 144-411 of u-PA; t-PA/u-PA-e: amino acids 1-274 of t-PA and 138-411 of u-PA). Incubation with human plasma in the absence of a fibrin clot for 3 h at 37° C at equipotent concentrations (50% clot lysis in 2 h), resulted in significant fibrinogen breakdown (to about 40% of the normal value) for all two chain molecules, but not for their single chain counterparts. Preincubation of the plasminogen activators with plasma for 3 h at 37° C, resulted in complete inhibition of the fibrinolytic potency of the two chain molecules but did not alter the potency of the single chain molecules. Inhibition of the two chain molecules occurred with a t½ of approximately 45 min. The two chain variants were inhibited by the synthetic urokinase inhibitor Glu-Gly-Arg-CH2CCl with apparent second-order rate constants of 8,000-10,000 M−1s−1, by purified α2-antiplasmin with second-order rate constants of about 300 M−1s−1, and by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) with second-order rate constants of approximately 2 × 107 M−1s−1.It is concluded that the reactivity of single chain and two chain forms of t-PA/u-PA chimaers with inhibitors is very similar to that of the single and two chain forms of intact u-PA.

The kinetics of the electrophilic additions of four diarylcarbenium ions (4a-4d) to tricarbonyl(η4-cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene)iron (1) have been studied photometrically. The second-order rate constants match the linear Gibbs energy relationship log k20 °C = s(E + N) and yield the nucleophilicity parameter N(1) = 3.69. It is concluded that electrophiles with E ≥ -9 will react with complex 1 at ambient temperature.

Cyclooctatetraene (COT) as a quencher of fluorescence of a series of Rhodamine solutions was studied. The second order rate constants for the quenching process of Rhodamine 110, Rhodamine 19 pchl., Rhodamine 6G pchl., Rhodamine 6G, Tetramethylrhodamine, Rhodamine B and Rhodamine 3B pchl. are given. It was found that COT enhances rather intersystem crossing than internal conversion.

Second order rate constants kE M−1 s−1 for the β-elimination reaction from N-[2-( p-nitrophenyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium and 2-( p-nitrophenyl)ethyl bromide induced by amines of different structure in dimethylsulfoxide at 50 °C have been measured. Application of the Brønsted equation shows a similar behaviour of the two substrates, with values of β = 0.649 and 0.584 respectively.

In order to get basic data for the design of a novel treatment scheme for high explosives we investigated the kinetics for the aqueous alkaline hydrolysis of 1,3,5,7-tetraaza-1,3,5,7-tetranitrocyclooctane (HMX) and the temperature dependence of the rate constants. We used an HPLC procedure for the analysis of HMX. All experimental data could be fit accurately to a pseudo first-order rate equation and subsequent calculation of second-order rate constants was also precise. Temperature dependence could be modeled with the Arrhenius equation. An increase of 10°C led to an average increase in the second-order rate constants by the 3.16 fold. The activation energy of the second-order reaction was determined to be 111.9 ±0.76 kJ·moJ‒1. We found the alkaline hydrolysis to be rapid (less than 2.5% of the initial HMX-concentration left after 100 minutes) at base concentrations of 23 mmol oH‒/L and elevated temperatures between 60 and 80°C.

A series of N-(N-dinitrophenylaminoalkyl)maleimides were sythesized with alkyl-chain lengths of two, four and six carbon atoms. When these compounds reacted with the thiol group of mercaptalbumin, the tryptophan fluorescence of the protein was quenched. This change in fluorescence was used to determine the rate of reaction of the Dnp (dinitrophenyl)-maleimides with mercaptalbumin. The second-order rate constants were similar to those observed in reactions between low-molecular-weight thiol compounds and maleimides. When N-(N-Dnp-aminoalkyl)succinimidomercaptalbumins were added to univalent fragments of anti-Dnp antibody the antibody fluorescence was quenched. Florescence-quenching titrations showed that the protein-bound Dnp groups were fully available to the antibody even when the alkyl chain was short. The apparent dissociation constants were significantly > that of the interaction between anti-Dnp antibody and the free hapten, 6-(N-Dnp)-aminohexanoate. The antibody fluorescence was quenched efficienty by [dnp-Lys41]ribonuclease A, also with an increased dissociation constant. It could be concluded from the increase in dissociation constant that the Dnp group spent no more than 0.1% of its time in the dissociated state, available to antibody. The second-order rate constants for the association between the Dnp-mercaptablumins and the antibody were determined and were similar in magnitude to those observed in other interactions between protein and anti-protein antibody.
