2-Iodosobenzoic acid forming strong nucleophile in alkaline medium - 1-oxido-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one, was used as a catalyst of alkaline hydrolysis of substituted phenyl acetates (4-NO2, 3-NO2, 3-Cl, 4-Br, H, 4-CH3, 3-CH3, 4-OCH3, 3-OCH3) in the presence of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as a micellar agent. It was found that the observed first-order rate constants kobs can be correlated by the Hammett equation: log kobs = (-3.29 ± 0.03) + (1.77 ± 0.001) σ.

The values of pseudo-first-order rate constants (kobs) for alkaline hydrolysis of1, obtained at 1.0 mM NaOH and withinCmEnT(total concentration ofCmEn) range of 3.0–5.0 mM forC12E23and 10–20 mM forC18E20, fail to obey pseudophase micellar (PM) model. The values of the fraction of near irreversibleCmEnmicellar trapped1molecules (FIT1) vary in the range ~0–0.75 forC12E23and ~0–0.83 forC18E20under such conditions. The values ofFIT1become 1.0 at ≥10 mMC12E23and 50 mMC18E20. Kinetic analysis of the observed data at ≥10 mMC12E23shows near irreversible micellar entrapment of1molecules under such conditions.

Abstract We describe a simple, highly reproducible kinetic technique for precisely measuring temperature in spectrophotometric systems having reaction cells that are inaccessible to conventional temperature probes. The method is based on the temperature dependence of pseudo-first-order rate constants for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of N-o-tolyl-D-glucosylamine. Temperatures of reaction cuvette contents are measured with a precision of +/- 0.05 degrees C (1 SD).

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.

The speciation of mixed butyrylglycerols (glycerol butyrates) and propanediol butyrate esters in the product mix from lamb pregastric lipase-catalysed hydrolysis of tributyrylglycerol and propane-1,2-diol dibutyrate has been examined by 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy. Samples from the quenched reaction mixture were extracted and allowed to stand in emulsion systems made up in bis tris propane buffer or water, pH 7·0, and in the absence of enzyme. There is clear evidence of uncatalysed conversion of rac-1,2-dibutyrylglycerol into the 1,3-isomer to form an equilibrium mixture containing c. 60–67% 1,3-isomer, and of conversion of propane-1,2-diol 1-butyrate into propane-1,2-diol 2-butyrate to form an equilibrium mixture containing c. 67% 2-monoester. Conversion kinetics to reach equilibrium are first order. Rate constants for acyl transfer of the diacylglycerol are 0·48 h-1 (in water) and 0·68 h-1 (in buffer) at 50°C, while those for acyl transfer of the 1-monoester are 0·72 h-1 (50°C) and 0·35 h-1 (35°C).

The electrochemistry of ruthenium(III) penta- and tetraammine chloro complexes has been investigated. In each case, the ruthenium(III) species was found to undergo an initial one electron reduction step, followed by hydrolysis of the chloride(s) in the ruthenium(II) product. The rate constants for the substitution steps were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry. An aqueous 0.30 M methane sulfonate electrolyte of pH 2.0 was used at 25 °C.Values for the reversible "E1/2" (V υs. SCE) and first order rate constants for the (stepwise) replacement of the Cl− are: Ru(NH3)5Cl+, −0.282 V and 17 s−1; cis-Ru(NH3)4Cl2+, −0.328 V, 80 s−1, and 5 s−1; trans-Ru(NH3)4Cl2+, −0.412 V, 2 s−1, and 0.4 s−1.The electrochemistry of Ru(NH3)5SO22+was also investigated. In a 0.10 M CH3SO3H – 0.20 M CH3SO3Na electrolyte the ruthenium(II) species was found to undergo an initial one electron oxidation step with "E1/2" = +0.50 V, followed by a slow hydrolysis of the SO2 in the ruthenium(III) product with k = 2.4 × 10−2 s−1 at 25 °C.

Salts of one isomeric series of chlorobenzylaminebis(ethylenediamine)- cobalt-(III) type of cations have been prepared using a variety of benzylamine derivatives as ligands. They are tentatively assigned a cis-configuration on the basis of their visible spectra. The first- order rate constants for their solvolytic aquation have been measured. Both resonance contributions and steric factors from the benzyl radical, as well as inductive effects of its substituents, all have negligibly small influences on the rate of reaction. The second-order rate constants for the hydrolysis of these cations by base have also been determined. The labilizing powers of the benzylamine ligands in this reaction are very similar to those of open-chain aliphatic amines, and significantly different from those of aromatic amines. To see if reactivities depend on the distance of separation between cobalt and the benzene ring, the experiments are extended to the chloro(β- phenylethylamine)bis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) type of complexes.

Alkaline hydrolysis if the phenyl acetates CH3COOC6H4X (X = 4-NO2, 3-NO2, 3-Cl, H, 4-CH3, 3-CH3, and 4-OCH3) in the presence of hexadecyltris(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium chloride, bis(2-hydroxyethyl)hexadecyl(methyl)ammonium bromide, and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide has been studied. Comparison of the rates of the hydrolysis for the above tenzides showed that the most efficient catalyst is the hexadecyltris(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium chloride. In all cases, the rate data correlated well with structure effects by the Hammett equation.

The two-step acidic hydrolysis of α-hydroxybenzylphosphonates and a few related derivatives was monitored in order to determine the kinetics and to map the reactivity of the differently substituted phosphonates in hydrolysis. Electron-withdrawing substituents increased the rate, while electron-releasing ones slowed down the reaction. Both hydrolysis steps were characterized by pseudo-first-order rate constants. The fission of the second P-O-C bond was found to be the rate-determining step.

The hydrolysis of diphenyl (4-nitrophenyl) phosphate catalyzed by 2-iodosobenzoic and 3-iodoso-2-naphthoic acids has been studied at different pH values in the presence of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as a micellar agent. It was found that 3-iodoso-2-naphthoic acid is better catalyst than 2-iodosobenzoic acid. At amounts of the acids higher than stoichiometric, the reaction is independent of pH in the 8.00 to 10.00 region while on using substoichiometric amounts, the reaction rate depends on OH- ion concentration only when the acid to diphenyl (4-nitrophenyl) phosphate molar ratio amounts to 12.5 : 1 for 2-iodosobenzoic acid and 6.25 : 1 for 3-iodoso-2-naphthoic acid.
