The second-order rate constants for the thallium(III)-induced aquation of cis-[Co(en)2(RNH2)Cl]2+ cations, where R is H, Me, Et, Prn, and Pri, have been measured in aqueous solution over a range of temperatures, and the activation parameters calculated. The kinetic results are discussed in terms of a rapid pre-equilibrium formation of an activated complex Co-Cl-Tl, followed by a simple rate-determining aquation in which TlCl2+ acts as the leaving group, although the alternative possibility of a rate-determining attack by Tl3+ cannot be excluded. In the case of R = H, the investigations have been extended to the corresponding bromo cation which reacts some 50 times faster than its chloro analogue.

In order to see the functionality and toxicity of nanoparticles in various food and drug applications, it is important to establish procedures to prepare nanoparticles of a controlled size. Desolvation is a thermodynamically driven self-assembly process for polymeric materials. In this study, we prepared BSA nanoparticles using the desolvation technique using acetone as desolvating agent. Acetone was added intermittently into 1% BSA solution at different pH under stirring at 700 rpm. Amount of acetone added, intermittent timeline of acetone addition, and pH of solution were considered as process parameters to be optimized. The effect of the process parameters on size of the nanoparticles was studied. The results indicated that the size control of BSA nanoparticles was achieved by adding acetone intermittently. The standard deviation of average size of BSA nanoparticles at each preparation condition was minimized by adding acetone intermittently. The intermittent addition in polymeric aqueous solution can be useful for size control for food or drug applications.

A self-assembly model for porous hydrate structures is proposed, which takes into account the sequence of basic physical processes: hydrate growth on the surface of the aqueous solution, formation of islet structure, capillary flow, separation and transfer of secondary crystallization nuclei to the meniscus. The model was studied within the cellular automata method. A good correspondence between the results of the simulation and the experimental data is obtained.

The paper deals with instability of solutions of quaternary ammonium permanganates, QMnO4 (Q = tetraethyl-, tetra-1-propyl-, tetra-1-butyl-, tetra-1-pentyl-, tetra-1-octyl-, and cetyltrimethylammonium), in dichloromethane and presents the rate constants and activation parameters of the reduction of permanganate. Attention was paid to the properties of colloidal Mn(IV) intermediate. The stability of the solutions depends markedly on the quaternary ammonium salt used.
