The rates of hydrolysis of sodium pyrophosphate and triphosphate in solution have been measured at 65.5 °C. over the pH range 2.0 to 12.0 and the phosphorus concentration range 0.10 to 0.25 atomic weights per liter. The reactions were found to be first order providing a constant concentration of hydrogen ion was maintained in the reaction flask. Both reactions are acid catalyzed but only the hydrolysis of triphosphate was found to be base catalyzed. Pyrophosphate and triphosphate apparently hydrolyze independently of each other.

The rates of hydrolysis of sodium tetrametaphosphate and tetraphosphate (in the presence of tetrametaphosphate) have been measured at 65.5 °C. over the pH range 2.5 to 13.3. Tetrametaphosphate anions hydrolyze to tetraphosphate which in turn hydrolyzes to triphosphate and orthophosphate and not to pyrophosphate. Thus the terminal oxygen bridges in the tetraphosphate and not the central one are attacked preferentially. The reactions were first order and acid catalyzed. The tetrametaphosphate hydrolysis was also base catalyzed with a minimum rate in solutions of pH approximately 7.5. The rate of hydrolysis of tetraphosphate was greater than triphosphate at the hydrogen ion concentrations studied. Hydrolysis of a sodium phosphate glass indicated that preferential attack on terminal oxygen bridges takes place also with higher polymers. However, trimetaphosphate is formed at the same time.

The course of hydrolysis of an ester, 4-acetoxy-3-nitrobenzoic acid catalyzed with poly(1-methyl-3-allylimidazolium bromide) (IIa), poly[l-methyl-3-(2-propinyl)imidazolium chloride] (IIb) and poly[l-methyl-3-(2-methacryloyloxyethyl)imidazolium bromide] (IIc) in a 28.5% aqueous ethanol was investigated as a function of pH and compared with low-molecular weight models, viz., l-methyl-3-alkylimidazolium bromides (the alkyl group being methyl, propyl, and hexyl, resp). Polymers IIb, IIc possessed a higher activity at pH above 9, while the models were more active at a lower pH with a maximum at pH 7.67. The catalytic activity at the higher pH is attributed to an attack by the OH- group, while at the lower pH it is assigned to a direct attack of water on the substrate. The rate of hydrolysis of 4-acetoxy-3-nitrobenzoic acid is proportional to the catalyst concentration [IIc] and proceeds as a first-order reaction. The hydrolysis depends on the composition of the solvent and was highest at 28.5% (vol.) of ethanol in water. The hydrolysis of a neutral ester, 4-nitrophenyl acetate, was not accelerated by IIc.

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).

Hydrolysis Of

The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of methyl isonitrile has been examined. The initial hydrolysis product is N-methylformamide which is further hydrolyzed to methyl amine and formic acid at a much slower rate. The hydrolysis to N-methylformamide is pseudo-first order in methyl isonitrile and shows a linear rate dependence on concentration of general (buffer) acid at fixed pH. The significance of general acid-catalysis in terms of the mechanism of the hydrolysis is considered and taken as evidence for carbon protonation rather than nitrogen protonation as the initiating step.

Mechanism Of The Reaction

Dimethyl acetylphosphonate (DAP) is rapidly cleaved in water to acetate and dimethylphosphonic acid. The half time for reaction at pH 7, 25 °C is estimated to be 3 s. The reaction is first order in hydroxide ion concentration and first order in DAP concentration. Rates of reaction were measured over the pH range 3.8 to 6.5 at 25 °C, 6.5 and 7.0 at 5 °C, 4.5 to 6.5 at 35 °C, and 4.5 to 6.0 at 45 °C. The average observed second-order rate constant at 25 °C is 2.4 × 106M−1 s−1. DAP is converted rapidly to a hydrated carbonyl adduct. The mechanism for the formation of the observed products is proposed to be analogous to cleavage reactions of other carbonyl hydrates, proceeding from a monoanion conjugate in this case. The estimated rate constant for the unimolecular cleavage of the carbonyl hydrate anion is 2 × 103 s−1. The rapid hydrolysis of DAP results from energetically favourable formation of a hydrate due to the electronic effect of the phosphonate diester. This effect also promoles ionization of the hydrate. The ionized hydrate readily expels the phosphonate diester to achieve the overall rapid hydrolysis.

The hydrolysis of N,N′-dimethylformamidine (DMFA) has been investigated in acid and alkaline aqueous media by 1H nmr; only a narrow basic pH range could be extensively studied kinetically. The pseudo-first-order kobs rose steadily from pH 11.5 to 13.0 (reaction approximately first order in OH−), then became independent of pH above 13.5 (9.3 × 10−4 s−1 at 10 °C). In contrast to many amidines, DMFA is quite stable in acid solution (estimated value of the pseudo-first-order hydrolysis rate constant is 1.4 × 10−1 s−1 at 10 °C, pH 0.05, from measurements at 100 and 140 °C). This stability is ascribed to the difficulty of eliminating the fairly strong base methylamine from the tetrahedral intermediate in acid solution.N-Methylformamide (NMF), one of the products, is formed initially as the cis isomer. A somewhat slower conversion then occurs to the thermodynamically more stable trans isomer. This unusual result is explained in terms of Deslongchamps and co-workers' theory of stereoelectronic control for the orbital-assisted breakdown of tetrahedral intermediates.

First-order rate coefficients at three temperatures, and energies and entropies of activation, have been determined for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of methyl glucopyranosides containing various substituents at C-5 and for glycopyranosiduronic acids with different aglycones. Substitution at C-5 increased the stability towards acids of methyl α- and β-D-glucopyranosides, but there was no correlation between either the polarity or the size of the substituent and the rates of hydrolysis. The operation of either an inductive or a conformational effect alone was accordingly deemed unlikely.Methyl α- and β-D-glucopyranosiduronic acids and methyl α-D-galactopyranosiduronic acid were only slightly more stable towards acids than the glycoside analogs, while benzyl β-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid was three times more stable. The presence of a methyl ester group at the carboxyl function increased the stability of the glycuronide bond. Isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, and neopentyl β-D-glucopyranosiduronic acids were hydrolyzed approximately twice and cyclohexy β-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid five times as fast as the corresponding glucosides. This appears to be the first time that glycuronides have been found to be hydrolyzed by dilute acid at a higher rate than their glycoside analogs.The energies and, especially, the entropies of activation were, throughout, lower for the glycuronides than for the glycosides. The difference in entropy suggests that the two classes of compounds are hydrolyzed by different mechanisms.

The uncatalysed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl N- benzyloxycarbonylglycinate has been studied in 40% (v/v) ethanol-water over the pH range 7.6-8.5. The reaction shows a first-order dependence on the hydroxide ion concentration. The quite rapid hydrolysis (k = (4.4�0.4) x 104 1. mole-1 min-1 at 20�) may possibly indicate the formation of a 2-benzyloxyoxazoline-5-one intermediate. ��� Unlike the hydrolysis of the p-nitrophenyl esters of α-amino acids, the hydrolysis of the N-protected derivatives is not catalysed by carbon dioxide. The hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl N- benzyloxycarbonylglycinate is, however, catalysed by imidazole in 40% v/v ethanol-water. Unprotonated imidazole (Im) is the catalytically active species. N-Benzyloxycarbonylaminoacetylimidazole has been detected spectrophotometrically as an intermediate in the reaction, indicating nucleophilic catalysis by the base. o-Mercaptobenzoic acid was also found to catalyse the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl N- benzyloxycarbonylglycinate. pH-rate profile studies indicate that the dianion of o-mercaptobenzoic acid is the catalytically active species, the substrate presumably hydrolysing via the thioester intermediate Z- NHCH2COSC6H4COO-, although efforts to detect such an intermediate have been unsuccessful. Some evidence for a thioester intermediate in the L- cysteine-catalysed reaction has been obtained.

The kinetics of the non-enzymatic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate have been studied in aqueous solution in the pH range 2.6 to 9.0 and at temperatures from 68.0°to 82.0 °C. The reaction has been followed by colorimetric measurement of the nitrophenol produced by the reaction[Formula: see text]The reaction is first order with respect to p-nitrophenyl phosphate and has an activation energy of 26.0 kcal./mole at pH 2.6. An explanation has been proposed in terms of the different rates of hydrolysis of the various ionic species of the ester present in solution.

The behavior of N-benzoylaspartic acid and N-benzoylglutamic acid has been investigated at 100° in dilute solution in water and aqueous hydrochloric acid within the pH range 3.1–0.5. Some data are presented concerning the hydrolysis of the N-benzoyl derivatives of alanine, β-alanine, leucine, glycine, serine, and β-ethanolamine in water, 0.1 N hydrochloric acid, and 2 N hydrochloric acid. Benzoylglutamic acid undergoes a pH-independent conversion into pyrrolid-2-one-5-carboxylic acid, which then hydrolyses in mineral acid to glutamic acid; however, N-benzoylaspartic acid, under similar conditions, hydrolyses much more rapidly by a route which does not involve the corresponding lactam as an intermediate. In anhydrous alcohols the solvolysis of N-benzoylaspartic acid gives mixtures of aspartic acid and the β ester.First-order rate constants have been obtained for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of pyrrolid-2-one-5-carboxylic acid (I) and azetidin-2-one-4-carboxylic acid (II) in water over this pH range.
