The reaction of apotyrosinase with divalent copper to give enzymatically active tyrosinase has been studied at pH 8.2 and temperatures from 278 to 303 K. At a 10-fold excess of Cu(II) over enzyme, the pseudo-first order rate constants range from 1.32 × 10−3 s−1 to 2.93 × 10−2 s−1 and yield activation parameters of ΔH≠ = 85 ± 3 kJ∙mol−1 and ΔS≠ = 5 ± 20 J∙mol−1∙K−1. The near zero value for the entropy of activation is discussed.Key words: tyrosinase, copper.

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).

The pseudo first-order rate constants for the mercury(II)-induced aquation of trans-[Co(Hdmg)2(NH3)Cl] (Hdmg = dimethylglyoximate ion) have been measured in aqueous and aqueous ethanol solutions (ethanol- water mole ratio 1 : 5.1) containing various excess amounts of mercury(II)ion at 273.2 K. Association constants of the complex formed with mercury(II) ion and rate constants for dissociation of the activated complex in both solutions have been calculated. The kinetic results are discussed in terms of formation of an activated complex Co-C1-Hg, followed by a simple rate-determining aquation in which HgCl+ acts as the leaving group.

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.

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.

First order rate constants and activation parameters are reported for the decomposition in chloroform and acetone solvents of a series of 4-substituted-benzylphenyldimethylammonium bromides and iodides and also of a series of tetra-alkylammonium bromides which contain no benzyl group. The results are discussed in terms of general mechanism of these reactions, which are unimolecular "ionic internal" nucleophilic substitutions

The kinetics of the reactions of a series of (Z)-4-arylidene-2-phenyl-5(4H)oxazolones 1 with n-butylamine and piperidine were studied spectrophotometrically in dioxane, ethanol, and cyclohexane under pseudo-first-order conditions and at different temperatures. The relation k1(obs) = k2[amine] + k3[amine]2 was found applicable for all reactions studied in either dioxane or ethanol. However, in cyclohexane the n-butylaminolysis of 1 followed only third-order kinetics k1(obs) = k3[n-BuNH2]2. The kinetics of the reaction of 1 with n-butylamine in the presence of catalytic amounts of triethylamine in dioxane followed the equation: k1(obs)k2 = [n-BuNH2] + k3[n-BuNH2]2[Formula: see text] [Et3N]. The rate constants k2 and k3 correlated well with the Hammett equation and the corresponding activation parameters were determined. The results were interpreted in terms of a mechanism involving solvent- and amine-catalyzed processes.

With the exception of the saxitoxins, the cyanobacterial metabolites studied were shown to be biodegradable in two South Australian waters with the rate of biodegradation of the metabolites influenced by temperature and to a lesser extent, seasonal variations. The order of ease of biodegradability followed the trend: microcystin-LR > cylindrospermopsin > geosmin > 2-methylisoborneol > saxitoxins. Pseudo-first-order rate constants for the biodegradation of the metabolites ranged from 9.6 × 10−4 to 2.6 × 10−2 h−1.

The reactions of [Pd(dien)H2O]2+ and [Pt(dien)H2O]2+ (dien = diethylenetriamine or 1,5-diamino-3-azapentane) with l-cysteine and S-methyl-l-cysteine were studied in an aqueous 0.10 M NaClO4 solution using stopped-flow and conventional UV-vis spectrophotometry. The second-order rate constants for the reactions of [Pd(dien)H2O]2+ at pH 1.0 are k1298 = (9.11 ± 0.11) × 102 M−1 s−1 for l-cysteine, and k1298 = (33.79 ± 0.63) × 102 M−1 s−1 for S-methyl-l-cysteine. The second-order rate constants for the reactions of [Pt(dien)H2O]2+ at pH 1.0 with l-cysteine is k1298 = (1.28 ± 0.08) × 10−2 M−1 s−1 and for S-methyl-l-cysteine is k1298 = (3.87 ± 0.02) × 10−2 M−1 s−1. Activation parameters were determined for all reactions, and the negative values of entropy of activation support an associative complex formation mechanism. Substitution reactions were also studied at pH 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5. The rate constants increase with increase in pH. These results are discussed in terms of protolitic equilibrium.
