1. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate exists in neutral aqueous solution at 20°C as a mixture of keto, gem-diol and enolic forms in the ratio 55:44:1. 2. The three forms are freely interconvertible and rate constants for these reactions have been determined. 3. Keto-dihydroxyacetone phosphate is the primary reactive species in the reactions catalysed by α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase and triose phosphate isomerase. 4. The proportion of keto form to gem-diol forms of dihydroxyacetone phosphate is temperature-dependent. At 37°C, 83% is keto-dihydroxyacetone phosphate. 5. The enzymological and metabolic consequences of these results are discussed.

The rates of reaction of halide ions with ethylene oxide in neutral aqueous solution and the rate of hydrolysis of ethylene oxide in acid solution have been measured and the activation energies determined. From these data and from the ratio of glycol to chlorohydrin formed when ethylene oxide reacts with excess aqueous hydrogen halide, the rates of the acid-catalyzed addition of halide ions to ethylene oxide at 25 °C. have been estimated.
