The kinetics of formation of the monophenanthroline complex of nickel(II) has been studied spectrophotometrically in water–methanol mixtures of 0 to 97 weight % of methanol, at ionic strength 0.050, at varying acidities at 25 °C. Values for the rate constants for the acid independent and acid dependent reactions together with values for the equilibrium acid ionization quotient of phenanthrolium ion over the range of solvent mixtures have been determined. The values of the acid independent rate constant show little dependence on solvent compositions up to 76% methanol, then decrease and show no correlation with trends in the ionization quotient of phenanthrolium ion. The acid dependent rate constant shows only a modest dependence on solvent composition over most of the range of solvent compositions except in the range of highest methanol content where it is not significantly different from zero.

The kinetics of formation of the monophenanthroline complex of nickel(II) in ethanol has been studied using stopped-flow methods over the temperature range 7 to 35 °C. Tetrabutyl ammonium perchlorale in concentration 0.044 M does not affect the rate appreciably, sodium perchlorate at the same concentration depresses the rate significantly. Most measurements were made in the absence of electrolytes other than nickel perchlorate and a trace of perchloric acid. The second order rate constant is not significantly dependent on the nickel(II) concentration over a four-fold change in value indicating that the concentration of encounter pairs is small relative to the concentration of the free reactants. The rate constant at 25 °C (31 × 103 M−1 s−1)is consistent with a dissociative interchange mechanism and the rate constant for ethanol exchange on nickel. However, the value of ΔH≠ for the overall reaction (15.9 ± 1.0 kcal mol−1) is about 5 kcal mol−1 higher than that reported for ethanol exchange.

Oxygen of mass 18 was used as a stable tracer to measure the rate of exchange between the sulfite ion and water as a function of pH and total sulfite concentration. A value for the rate constant of hydration of SO2 in aqueous solution was determined. The gross rate constants k1 and k−1 for the overall reaction[Formula: see text]at 24.7 °C and ionic strength = 0.9 were evaluated from exchange results to be [Formula: see text]Also, for the first time, rate constants for the pyrosulfite equilibrium[Formula: see text]Were obtained[Formula: see text]at 24.7 °C and ionic strength = 0.9

The kinetics of formation and decomposition of the hydroxyl-σ adduct 2 derived from 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan 1 have been studied in various water – dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) – tetramethylammonium chloride (I = 0.5 M) mixtures. At pH < 7, the formation of 2 occurs exclusively from water attack at the 7-carbon of 1. This process is strongly favored by DMSO: the first-order rate constant k1H2O changes from 1.9 × 10−2 s−1 in water to 1.33 s−1 in 90% DMSO. Taking into account the decrease in the water content of the solutions, and assuming that only one water molecule participates in the reaction, this increase in k1H2O reflects a 103-fold increase in the ability of a water molecule to act as a nucleophile. This interesting result compares well with previous data reported by Murto for the solvolysis of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene in the same solvent mixtures.

The rate of hydrolysis of S2O82- ions in acidic medium to peroxomonosulphuric acid was measured at 20 and 30 °C. The composition of the starting solution corresponded to the anolyte flowing out from an electrolyser for production of this acid or its ammonium salt at various degrees of conversion and starting molar ratios of sulphuric acid to ammonium sulphate. The measured data served to calculate the rate constants at both temperatures on the basis of the earlier proposed mechanism of the hydrolysis, and their dependence on the ionic strength was studied.

The kinetics of iron(III) hydrolysis and precipitation in aqueous glycine solutions were studied by cathodic voltammetry with a mercury drop electrode. The kinetics was controlled by changing ionic strength (I), pH and glycine concentration. Voltammetric measurements clearly showed formation and dissociation of a soluble Fe(III)–glycine complex, formation of iron(III) hydroxide and its precipitation. The rate constants of iron(III) hydroxide precipitation were assessed. The precipitation is first-order with respect to dissolved inorganic iron(III). The calculated rate constants of iron(III) precipitation varied from 0.18 × 10–5 s–1 (at 0.2 M total glycine, pH 7.30, I = 0.6 mol dm–3) to 2.22 × 10–3 s–1 (at 0.1 M total glycine, pH 7.30, I = 0.2 mol dm–3). At 0.5 M total glycine and I = 0.6 mol dm–3, the iron(III) precipitation was not observed.

The kinetics of oxidation of uranium (IV) by iron (III) in aqueous solutions of perchloric acid have been investigated at four temperatures between 3.1 °C. and 24.8 °C. The reaction was followed by measurement of the amount of ferrous ion formed. For the conditions (H+) = 0.1–1.0 M, ionic strength = 1.02, (FeIII) = 10−4–10−5 M, and (UIV) = 10−4–10−5 M, the observed rate law is d(Fe2+)/dt = −2d(UIV)/dt[Formula: see text]K1 and K2 are the first hydrolysis constants for Fe3+ and U4+, respectively, and K′ and K″ are pseudo rate constants. At 24.8 °C., K′ = 2.98 sec.−1, and K″ = 10.6 mole liter−1 sec−1. The corresponding temperature coefficients are ΔH′ = 22.5 kcal./mole and ΔH″ = 24.2 kcal./mole. The kinetics of the process are consistent with a mechanism which involves, as a rate-controlling step, electron transfer between hydrolyzed ions.

The kinetics of the renaturation of Escherichia coli DNA in 0·4–1·0m-sodium chloride at temperatures from 60° to 90° have been studied. The extent of renaturation was a maximum at 65° to 75° and increased with ionic strength, and the rate constant increased with both ionic strength and temperature. The energy and entropy of activation of renaturation were calculated to be 6–7kcal.mole−1 and −40cal.deg.−1mole−1 respectively. It has been shown that renaturation is a second-order process for 5hr. under most conditions. The results are consistent with a reaction in which the rate-controlling step is the diffusion together of two separated complementary DNA strands and the formation of a nucleus of base pairs between them. The kinetics of the renaturation of T7-phage DNA and Bordetella pertussis DNA have also been studied, and their rates of renaturation related quantitatively to the relative heterogeneity of the DNA samples. By analysis of the spectra of DNA at different stages during renaturation it was shown that initially the renatured DNA was rich in guanine–cytosine base pairs and non-random in base sequence, but that, as equilibrium was approached, the renatured DNA gradually resembled native DNA more closely. The rate constant for the renaturation of guanine–cytosine base pairs was slightly higher than for adenine–thymine base pairs.

The reaction between sodium hypochlorite and potassium cyanate in the presence of sodium hydroxide has been examined. The main products are chloride, and carbonate ions and nitrogen; but, especially if much hypochlorite is present, some nitrate is formed as well. The rate of reaction is proportional to the cyanate and hypochlorite concentrations, but inversely proportional to the hydroxide concentration: the rate constant is 5.45 × 10−4 min.−1 at 65 °C, at an ionic strength of 2.2. The rate constant increases somewhat as the ionic strength rises from 1.7 to 3.5. The effect of temperature makes the apparent activation energy 25 kcal./gm-molecule. The kinetics of the reaction suggest that the slow step is really a reaction of hypochlorous acid and cyanate ions, and possible intermediate products of this reaction are suggested. Allowing for the different extent of hydrolysis of hypochlorite at different temperatures, the true activation energy is found to be 15 kcal./gm-mol., which is consistent with the observed rate of reaction.

The rate constants for the oxidation of reduced cytochrome c by aquacopper(II) ion, aquachloro- copper(II) ion and aquadichlorocopper(II) were found to be 5.7�0.3 1. mol-1 s-1, 2.3×102 1. mol-1 s-1 and 5.6xl031. mol-1 s-1 respectively at 25�C, ionic strength 0.1 and pH 4.0. At low ratios of aquacopper(II) ion to ferrocytochrome c, when oxygen is required to completely oxidize the cytochrome, the reaction mechanism was found to be complex. No evidence for the involvement of copper bound to the cytochrome was found.
