It has been shown analytically that for this reaction the formation of Cl− agrees with S2O3− disappearance. The approximate first order rate-controlling step is postulated to be dependent on an ionization mechanism. The rate expression calculated from initial rate constants is given approximately by k = 4.0 × 1015e−25,500/RT hr.−1.

The principal reaction of methyl-bis-β-chloroethylamine in methanol is dimerization, which results in one chlorine from each molecule becoming ionic, but this is accompanied by slight alcoholysis. The rate-controlling step is believed to be the first order formation of an ethylenimonium ion which reacts rapidly with one of its kind to form dimer. The rate expression as calculated from initial rate constants is k (initial) = 4.0 × 1013e−19600/RThr.−1.

<p>The reaction of bis-(diaminoethane)nickel(II) chloride, ([Ni(en)2]Cl2 in methanol with formaldehyde and nitroethane in the presence of triethylamine proceeds readily to produce (6, 13-dimethyl-6, 13-dinitro-1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)nickel(II) chloride, [Ni(dini)] - Cl2. Reduction of the nitro groups of this compound by catalytic hydrogenation yields three isomers of the pendant arm macrocyclic complex (6, 13-diamino-6, 13-dimethyl-1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazachyclotetradecane)nickel(II) chloride, designated a-, b- and c-[Ni(diam)]Cl2. These were separated by fractional crystallization. The aisomer was observed to isomerizes slowly in solution to the b- form. A parallel dissociation reaction of the a- isomer was also observed. The demetallation of a- and b- isomers of the diam complex of nickel by reaction with cyanide or concentrated acid at 140 degrees C produces the macrocycle meso-(6, 13-diamino-6, 13-dimethyl-1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazacyclotetra-decane), diam. A variety of hexamine, pentamine and tetramine complexes of diam with nickel(II), copper(II), cobalt(II) and (III), chromium(III), palladium(II), rhodium(III), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) were prepared. Hexamine and tetramine forms of labile metal complexes could be rapidly and reversibly interconverted by altering the pH. The hexamine cobalt(III) cation, [Co(diam)]3+ was by far the most inert of the prepared cobalt(III) complexes, remaining unaffected in hot acidic solutions. In contrast, a single pendant arm of the hexamine [Cr(diam)]3+ cation could be dissociated in acid. (Two possibly triamine complexes of lead were also prepared). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic measurements, electronic, infrared, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The pendant arm protonation constants (log K) of diam and selected complexes of nickel, copper and palladium were calculated from potentiometric titration measurements at 25 degrees C. The log K values for diam at 25 degrees C (I = 0.1 M NaclO4) were 11.15, 9.7, 6.2 and 5.3. Kinetics of the parallel isomerization and dissociation of a-[Ni(dimH2)]4+ in HCl/NaCl solutions were monitored spectrophotometrically at 50 degrees C. The rate of reaction in acidic solutions showed a non-linear dependency on acid concentration. The observed first order rate constant (kobs) for disappearance of a-[Ni(diamH2)]4+ (by isomerization and dissociation) in 2.0 M HCl, 0.1 M NaOH and 2.0 M NaCl were 3.05 x 10-4, 2.0(3) x 10-2 and 5.0 x 10-5 s-1 respectively. The rate of the dissociation component of the reaction of a-[Ni(diamH2)]4+ in 2.0 M HCl at 50 degrees C was 1.82 x 10-7 s-1. Acid bydrolysis kinetics of (Cu[diamH2])(ClO4)4 in hydrochloric acid and perchloric acid at 50 and 70 degrees C were studied spectrophotometrically. The reactions were slow and the observed first order rate constants were to a first approximation independent of the particular acid or its concentration. The observed first order rate constants were 1 x 10-9 and 8 x 10-9 s-1 at 50 and 70 degrees C respectively. Questions about the nature of the reaction being followed have been raised.</p>

The kinetics of TBBPA degradation by ozonation in semi-batch reactor was studied. The reaction rate constants of TBBPA with O3 and •OH were measured by means of direct ozone attack and competition kinetics, and the values of which were 6.10 l/(mol•s), 4.8×109 l/(mol•s), respectively. Results of kinetic studies showed that TBBPA degradation by ozonation under the different conditions tested followed the pseudo-first-order. The values of apparent rate constant of TBBPA degradation increased with the increase of ozone dosage and pH, but decreased with the increase of initial TBBPA concentration.

The degradation of propoxycarbazone-sodium, an active component of commercial herbicide, in aqueous solution with ozone, UV photolysis and advanced oxidation processes: O3/UV, O3/UV/H2O2, H2O2/UV, and the Fenton process was studied. All these methods of degradation proved feasible. The kinetics of propoxycarbazone-sodium degradation in water followed the pseudo-first order equation for all studied processes except the Fenton treatment. The application of schemes with ozone demonstrated low pseudo-first order rate constants within the range of 10−4 s−1. Addition of UV radiation to the processes improved the removal of propoxycarbazone-sodium and increased the pseudo-first order rate constants to 10−3 s−1. The Fenton process was the most efficient and resulted in 5 and 60 s of half-life and 90% conversion time of propoxycarbazone-sodium, respectively, at 14 mM H2O2 concentration. UV treatment and the Fenton process may be recommended for practical application in decontamination of water or wastewater.

The pyrolysis of toluene has been studied in an attempt to verify the findings of Szwarc (2). The major products have been confirmed but styrene and isomeric dimethyl diphenyls have also been detected. First order rate constants for the decomposition have been found to depend on the condition of the surface of the reactor, the contact time, and, to a lesser degree, on the pressure. Some preliminary studies on the mechanism of the formation of the dimethyl diphenyls are also recorded.

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of isobutane has been investigated over an initial pressure range of from 5 to 60 cm., and at temperatures from 522 to 582 °C. The initial first order rate constants at high pressures are given by[Formula: see text]The results are in general agreement with those obtained by previous investigators. The reaction rate falls off with diminishing pressure, and the first order rate constants in a given run diminish strongly as the reaction proceeds. This behavior is similar to that of n-butane.Analyses of the products of the reaction were made at various stages, temperatures, and initial pressures by low-temperature distillation in a still of the Podbielniak type. The initial products were found by extrapolation to be H2, 35; CH4, 14; C2H4, 0.9; C2H6, 0.9; C3H6, 14; and C4H8, 35%. The results are compared with those of other workers.

The kinetics of the pyrolysis of ethyl bromide and ethyl bromide-d5 have been studied using the toluene carrier gas technique. Variation of the pressure in the range 0.6 to 4.4 cm. Hg reveals what is believed to be a legitimate pressure effect on the first-order rate constants. The Arrhenius rate expressions determined at 4 cm. Hg pressure are: k(ethyl bromide) = 8.5 ± 1.6 × 1012e−52,200±300/RTsec−1 (T = 523°–633 °C);k(ethyl bromide-d5) = 2.1 ± 0.4 × 1013e−54,840±300/RT sec−1 (T = 531°–635 °C).The differences in the two rate expressions are discussed.

Abstract The Jaffé reaction for creatinine assay appears to follow pseudo-first-order kinetics; first-order rate constants are different for different samples. Rate constants for 10 different serum samples varied from a low value of 0.0040 +/- 0.0003 s-1 to 0.0084 +/- 0.0008 s-1. We describe an approach for determining first-order rate constants from kinetic data and discuss the effects of the above observations on the mathematical formulations required for reliable kinetic determinations of creatinine.

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of propane has been investigated over a temperature range from 551° to 602 °C. The limiting high pressure first order rate constants are given by[Formula: see text]The first order rate constants fall off strongly with increasing percentage decomposition, and the rate decreases with decreasing pressure in a manner similar to the rate decrease in the decomposition of the butanes.Analyses of the products of reaction at various stages show them to be independent of temperature over the range examined, but to be affected by the initial pressure. This effect is undoubtedly due to the secondary hydrogenation of some of the initial products. The analytical results are in excellent agreement with those of Frey and Hepp.

The kinetics of the reduction of the 3-cyano-1-methylquinolinium, 4-cyano-2-methylisoquinolinium, and 2-methyl-5-nitro-isoquinolinium cations by 9,10-dihydro-10-methylacridine, and also the reduction of these same three cations as well as the 10-methylacridinium cation by 5,6-dihydro-5-methylphenanthridine, have been investigated in 20% acetonitrile – 80% water, ionic strength 1.0, 25 °C. The reactions of the 2-methyl-5-nitroisoquinolinium cation with both reductants, and also of the 4-cyano-2-methylisoquinolinium cation with 9,10-dihydro-10-methylacridine, display kinetic saturation effects in the pseudo-first-order rate constants as a function of heterocyclic cation concentration. These effects are consistent with the formation of 1:1 association complexes between hydride donor and acceptor prior to the rate-determining step of the reduction. The second-order rate constants for these reactions, and also those for analogous heterocyclic cation reductions by 1,4-dihydronicotinamides, show systematic variations as a function of the hydride donor and acceptor species.
