The effect of acids on the decomposition of 3-methyl-1,3-diphenyltriazene has been studied in aqueous ethanol (40% (v/v) ethanol). The dependences found between the rate constant and acid concentration have been analyzed by means of non-linear regression using models including the specific and general catalysis and formation of associates between the substrate and the buffer components. The substrate has been found to form electrostatic associates with the conjugated base of acid. The complex formed is decomposed with the assistance of the proton or a general acid in the rate-limiting step to form the product. The Bronsted coefficient α = 0.81 has been found. Investigation of the activation parameters supports the earlier conclusions, indicating a dependence between the reaction mechanism and composition of the aqueous organic solvent.

Kinetics of formation of 2-imino-4-thiazolidone from S-ethoxycarbonylmethylisothiouronium chloride has been studied in aqueous buffers and dilute hydrochloric acid. The reaction is subject to general base catalysis, the β value being 0.65. Its rate limiting step consists in acid-catalyzed splitting off of ethoxide ion from dipolar tetrahedral intermediate. At pH < 2 formation of this intermediate becomes rate-limiting; rate constant of its formation is 2 . 104 s-1.

Kolbe electrolysis has been proposed an efficient electrooxidation process to synthesize (un)symmetrical dimers from biomass-based carboxylic acids. However, the reaction mechanism of Kolbe electrolysis remains controversial. In this work, we develop a DFT- based microkinetic model to study the reaction mechanism of Kolbe electrolysis of acetic acid (CH3COOH) on both pristine and partially oxidized Pt anodes. We show that the shift in the rate-determining step of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on Pt(111)@α-PtO2 surface from OH* formation to H2O adsorption gives rise to the large Tafel slopes, i.e., the inflection zones, observed at high anodic potentials in experiments on Pt anodes. The activity passivation as a result of the inflection zone is further exacerbated in the presence of Kolbe species (i.e., CH3COO* and CH3*). Our simulations find the CH3COO* decarboxylation and CH3* dimerization steps determine the activity of Kolbe reaction during inflection zone. In contrast to the Pt(111)@α-PtO2 surface, Pt(111) shows no activity towards Kolbe products as the CH3COO* decarboxylation step is limiting throughout the considered potential range. This work resolves major controversies in the mechanistic analyses of Kolbe electrolysis on Pt anodes: the origin of the inflection zone, and the identity of the rate limiting step.

It has been found that the condensation rate of 1-amino-4-bromoanthraquinone-2-sulphonic acid (I) with 1,3-diaminobenzene-4-sulphonic acid (II) giving 1-amino-4-(3'-amino-4'-sulphoanilino)anthraquinone-2-sulphonic acid (III) in media of NaHCO3-CO2 and NaHCO3-Na2CO3 with catalysis by CuI obeys the kinetic relation *u = k[I][II][Cu+][CO2-3], being controlled by the kinetic relation *u = k[I][II][Cu+]2[PO3-4] in media of NaH2PO4-Na2HPO4 buffers. The suggested reaction mechanism presumes formation of a bifunctional catalyst CuCO-3 or Cu2PO-4 which splits off the proton and bromide anion from the reaction intermediate in the rate-limiting step.

Kinetics has been studied of cyclization of 2-acetyl-3-methylamino-N-benzoyl-2-betenethioamide (Ia) and 2-acetyl-3-amino-N-benzoyl-2-butenethioamide (Ib) giving 5-acetyl-2-phenyl-1,6-dimethyl-4-(1H)pyrimidinethione (IIa) and 5-acetyl-2-phenyl-6-methyl-4-(3H)-pyrimidinethione (IIb), respectively, in aqueous buffers within pH 2 to 9. Formation of the cyclic intermediate is rate-limiting in the cyclization of Ib within the whole range. In the case of Ia the rate-limiting step consists in acid-catalyzed splitting off of water from the cyclic intermediate above pH 5 and in base-catalyzed splitting off of hydroxyl ion above pH 7.

Tautomerism of the title compound in methanol in the presence of buffers is subject to general acid and base catalysis. The rate-limiting step of the acid-catalyzed reaction consists in addition of the proton to the methine carbon atom of the enamine form, whereas that of the base catalyzed reaction consists in protonation of the formed conjugated base of the enamine. Solvent effects on the equilibrium constant of the isomerization have been measured.

Present Experimental Evidence

Cytochrome cd1 nitrite reductase is a haem-containing enzyme responsible for the reduction of nitrite into NO, a key step in the anaerobic respiratory process of denitrification. The active site of cytochrome cd1 contains the unique d1 haem cofactor, from which NO must be released. In general, reduced haems bind NO tightly relative to oxidized haems. In the present paper, we present experimental evidence that the reduced d1 haem of cytochrome cd1 from Paracoccus pantotrophus releases NO rapidly (k=65–200 s−1); this result suggests that NO release is the rate-limiting step of the catalytic cycle (turnover number=72 s−1). We also demonstrate, using a complex of the d1 haem and apomyoglobin, that the rapid dissociation of NO is largely controlled by the d1 haem cofactor itself. We present a reaction mechanism proposed to be applicable to all cytochromes cd1 and conclude that the d1 haem has evolved to have low affinity for NO, as compared with other ferrous haems.

The effects of different substituents located at the para position of the aromatic ring and β carbon atom of the styrene on the reaction were investigated. The results showed that the reaction steps with higher energy barriers changed a little with the substituents of the reactants, which indicates that the reaction has a good adaptability to reactants containing different substituents. It was found the proton transfer in the final tautomerism step of nitroso intermediate to oxime is the rate limiting step under anhydrous conditions. Although the solvent effect did not influence the the rate limiting step significantly, the water mediated proton transfer significantly decreased the energy barrier of final tautomerism step. Compared with the direct proton transfer in vacuum, the energy barrier of the final tautomerism step decreased from 57.80kcal/mol in vacuum to 12.98kcal/mol with the water mediated proton transfer in water, which declined by 77.5%. When water participates in rate-limiting steps in organic solvents, the energy barrier also decreases significantly, which indicates that a small amount of water in the organic solvent is conducive to the reaction. This study is of great significance for the application of bifunctionalized reaction in the synthesis of organic fluoride compounds with different substituents.
