The oxidation of ascorbic acid by dioxygen catalyzed by cobalt(II) tetrasulphophthalocyanine (CoTSP) has been studied by the stopped-flow method. Two reactive intermediates, [O2.CoTSP. ascorbic acid] and [O2.CoTSP], characterized by separate absorption bands at 570 nm and 634 nm, respectively, have been proved to form in the reaction. The individual steps of the reaction have been elucidated, and their rate constants have been determined or estimated.

The rapid partial reactions of the oxidation of ascorbic acid by dioxygen with vanadyl tetrasulphophthalocyanine as a catalyst were studied by the stopped-flow method. The experimental data were treated on a computer and compared with the kinetic implications resulting from the proposed mechanism. Application of the adaptive identification method led to quantitative solution of the mechanism, i.e. determination of the values of all the isolated rate constants of the reaction mechanism.

The kinetics of bromination of the 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-2-oxopyrimidinium cation (Q+) in aqueous media (pH 0–5) have been studied using the stopped-flow method. At the higher acidities (pH < 2) the results are consistent with rate determining attack by bromine upon the pseudobase (QOH), whereas at low acidities (pH > 4) it appears that pseudobase formation is rate determining. The change occurs because at high acidity the reversal of the pseudobase QOH to the cation is fast relative to bromine attack, whereas at low acidity the converse is true. Results obtained at intermediate acidities (pH 2–4) are consistent with this interpretation.A separate kinetic study of pseudobase formation (and decomposition) yielded rate constants in good agreement with those derived from the bromination study.

The reaction of picryl bromide with sodium diethylmalonate has been studied in benzene–DMSO 7:1 v/v by means of stopped-flow and uv–visible spectrophotometers. A Meisenheimer-like intermediate was detected, decomposing to yield the stable violet anion of the substitution product. The rate constants of the individual steps have been measured and the activation parameters calculated. Comparison with those obtained for picryl chloride support a bimolecular substitution via the 1,1-complex. The reaction with 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene is too fast to be measured in the same solvent system. The equilibrium constant is estimated to be of the order of 104–105.

Abstract 2,3-dioxogulonic acid and the disodium salt of its enol were synthesised, isolated and identified both chemically and spectroscopically. A kinetic study was carried out on its equilibrium by means of the “stopped flow” method for rapid processes, and the rate constants for the forward and backward reaction were determined as a function of the pH of the medium. The kinetic coefficients involved, equilibrium constant and Gibbs free energies were also determined.

Rate constants of the reversible deprotonation of 9-cyanofluorene by primary aliphatic amines were measured in 10%, 50%, and 90% aqueous Me2SO (v/v) by the stopped-flow method. Intrinsic rate constants defined as k0 = k1B/q = k−1BH+/p at ΔpK + log (p/q) = 0 were obtained from Brønsted plots. The values for log k0 are 3.60 ± 0.15 in 10%, 3.81 ± 0.10 in 50%, and 3.61 ± 0.05 in 90% Me2SO. The constancy of k0 with increasing Me2SO content of the solvent contrasts with results obtained by Ritchie (C. D. Ritchie, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 91, 6749 (1969)) who found that k0 for the ionization of 9-carbomethoxyfluorene by carboxylate ions in Me2SO is much higher than for the ionization of the same carbon acid by methoxide ion in methanol. Our findings suggest that it is mainly early desolvation of the oxyanions in the hydroxylic solvent which accounts for Ritchie's results.

Stopped-flow and laser flash techniques have been employed to investigate the individual steps of the solvolysis reactions of benzhydryl (diarylmethyl) halides and carboxylates. In this way, absolute rate constants for the ionization (k1), recombination of the carbocation with the leaving group (k-1), and subsequent reaction with the solvent (kSolvOH) have been determined. As the stabilization of the carbocations increases, the mechanism changes from (a) SN1 reactions with irreversible ionization through (b) SN1 reactions with common-ion return and (c) SN2C+ reactions, where the intermediate carbocations accumulate, to (d) the formation of persistent carbocations which do not undergo subsequent reactions under the selected solvolysis conditions. The correlation equation log k = s(N + E), where the carbocations are characterized by the electrophilicity parameter E, and leaving groups and solvents are characterized by the nucleophile-specific parameters s and N can be employed to predict the changes of mechanism.

The kinetics of liquid-phase isothermal esterification of POCl3 with 2-isopropylphenol and 4-isopropylphenol have been studied within the temperature intervals of 110 to 130 and 90 to 110 °C, respectively. The rate constants and activation energies of the individual steps of this three-step reaction have been calculated from the values measured. The reaction rates of the two isomers markedly differ: at 110 °C 4-isopropylphenol reacts faster by the factors of about 7 and 20 for k1 and k3, respectively. This finding can be utilized in preparation of mixed triaryl phosphates, since the alkylation mixture after reaction of phenol with propene contains an excess of 2-isopropylphenol over 4-isopropylphenol.
