Osmometric measurements have been made on the alkali metal persulfates, and these are interpreted in terms of formation of ion pairs, MS2O8−, by means of the method of Masterton and Berka (5). Equilibrium constants, and the derived thermodynamic quantities are deduced for the reactions [Formula: see text]. These results are applied to the interpretation of the kinetics of the reactions[Formula: see text]With M = K+, Rb+, and Cs+, the reacting species are MFe(CN)63− + MS2O8−, with very similar rate constants; with M = Li+, Na+ the species are MFe(CN)63− + S2O82−; and for lithium the reaction of Fe(CN)64− + S2O82− is also important. Rate constants and activation parameters are deduced.

A study was carried out on the solvolysis of 1-adamantyl chlorothioformate (1-AdSCOCl, 1) in hydroxylic solvents. The rate constants of the solvolysis of 1 were well correlated using the Grunwald–Winstein equation in all of the 20 solvents (R = 0.985). The solvolyses of 1 were analyzed as the following two competing reactions: the solvolysis ionization pathway through the intermediate (1-AdSCO)+ (carboxylium ion) stabilized by the loss of chloride ions due to nucleophilic solvation and the solvolysis–decomposition pathway through the intermediate 1-Ad+Cl− ion pairs (carbocation) with the loss of carbonyl sulfide. In addition, the rate constants (kexp) for the solvolysis of 1 were separated into k1-Ad+Cl− and k1-AdSCO+Cl− through a product study and applied to the Grunwald–Winstein equation to obtain the sensitivity (m-value) to change in solvent ionizing power. For binary hydroxylic solvents, the selectivities (S) for the formation of solvolysis products were very similar to those of the 1-adamantyl derivatives discussed previously. The kinetic solvent isotope effects (KSIEs), salt effects and activation parameters for the solvolyses of 1 were also determined. These observations are compared with those previously reported for the solvolyses of 1-adamantyl chloroformate (1-AdOCOCl, 2). The reasons for change in reaction channels are discussed in terms of the gas-phase stabilities of acylium ions calculated using Gaussian 03.

The ultraviolet spectroscopy method has been applied to study the kinetics of the ozone reactions with nitrogenous bases (NB), namely adenine and cytosine in aqueous solutions. At the first research stage, the range of NB working concentrations has been determined. It was found that linear dependences between optical densities and concentrations of nitrogenous bases aqueous solutions are quite reliable, with correlation coefficients r ≥ 0.998, are satisfied up to [NB] = 2.3 ∙ 10–4 mol/l. According to the Bouguer-Lambert-Beer law, adenine and cytosine extinction coefficients in aqueous solutions were determined and subsequently used to calculate their residual concentrations. At the next stage, the kinetics of nitrogenous bases ozonized oxidation was studied with equal initial concentrations of the starting substances ([NB]0 = [О3]0). The results revealed that the kinetic consumption curves of the starting reagents are fairly well linearized (r ≥ 0.996) in the second-order reaction equation coordinates. As found with the bubbling installation, 1 mol of the absorbed ozone falls on 1 mol of the used NB. Thus, the reactions of ozone with adenine and cytosine explicitly proceed according to the second-order kinetic laws (the first – according to О3 and the first – according to NB). The rate constants were calculated by the integral reaction equations, the values of which indicate a higher ozone reactivity in relation to nitrogen bases. The temperature dependences of the second-order rate constants was studied ranging 285-309 K, and the activation parameters (pre-exponential factors and activation energies) of the ozone reactions with adenine and cytosine in aqueous solutions were determined.

Rate constants for the proton and deuteron transfer from 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-nitroethane to cesium n-propoxide in n-propanol have been measured under pseudo-first-order conditions with an excess of base for four temperatures between 5 and 35 °C. Using literature values of the fraction of cesium n-propoxide ion pairs that are dissociated into free ions, separate second-order rate constants for the proton and deuteron transfer to the ion pair and to the free ion have been calculated. The cesium n-propoxide ion pair is about 2.8 times more reactive than the free n-propoxide ion. The primary kinetic isotope effects for the two reactions are the same (kH/kD = 6.1–6.3 at 25 °C) within experimental error. The enthalpy of activation is smaller for the ion-pair reaction and the entropy of activation more negative than for the free-ion reaction. For proton transfer, ΔH±ion pair = 8.3 ± 0.2 kcal mol−1, ΔH±ion = 9.6 ± 1.0 kcal mol−1, ΔS±ion pair = −12.3 ± 0.6 cal mol−1 deg−1, ΔS±ion = −10.1 ± 3.4 cal mol−1 deg−1. The greater reactivity of the ion pair relative to the free ion is interpreted in terms of the weaker solvation shell of the ion pair in the initial state.

Equilibrium constants for the formation of 1:1 cyanide ion σ-complexes with 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, 2,4,6-trinitroanisole, and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene have been determined spectrophotometrically over a range of temperatures. Standard enthalpy (ΔH0) and entropy (ΔS0) changes associated with each reaction have been evaluated. The kinetics of formation of the σ-complexes have been investigated by means of a stopped-flow technique and the activation parameters characterizing the formation of each complex have been determined. Evidence is presented which indicates the cyanide ion – 2,4,6-trinitroanisole σ-complex formed in isopropanol contains the cyanide ion bonded exclusively at the C-3 position.

The rates of the reaction of ferrocyanide and persulfate ions, in the presence of various concentrations of different alkali metal cations, have been measured at various temperatures and ionic strengths. The results are interpreted in terms of ion pairs and support the view that the actual reacting species are MFe(CN)6−3 and MS2O8−, where M is an alkali metal. This is similar to the situation found earlier for potassium salts of these ions. The rate constants obtained on this assumption increase gradually from lithium to cesium. Values are also obtained for the apparent activation energies of these reactions.

Kinetics of the oxidation of 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol with tetraalkylammonium permanganates have been investigated as function of temperature. The studied reactions are partly autocatalytic, colloidal manganese dioxide as one of the reaction products has been identified as the autocatalyst.A computerized iterative procedure has been used in order to obtained the rate constants of both non-catalytic and catalytic reaction steps together with the thermodynamic activation parameters.

In aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions at 25 °C, 3-methyl-2-butenal, 1c, undergoes retroaldol cleavage to acetone and acetaldehyde. The kinetics of the retroaldol reaction were followed spectrophotometrically at 242 nm and showed simple first order behavior. When 3-methyl-3-hydroxybutanal, 2c, was added to aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions at 25 °C, there was an initial increase in absorbance at 242 nm, attributed to formation of 1c, followed by a 20-fold slower decrease; the rate of the slow decrease matches the rate of disappearance of 1c under the same conditions. Analysis of the kinetics allows determination of the three rate constants needed to describe the system: khyd = 0.00342; kdehyd = 0.00832; kretro = 0.0564; all M−1 s−1. The equilibrium constant for enone hydration is 0.41. Rate constants for the analogous reactions for acrolein and crotonaldehyde could be obtained from the literature. There is a reasonable rate–equilibrium correlation for the retroaldol step. For the enone hydration step, rate and equilibrium constants respond differently to replacement of hydrogen by methyl. It is proposed that this results from release of strain after the rate-determining step by rotation about a single bond; this decrease in strain is reflected in the equilibrium constant but not in the rate constant.

The oxidation kinetics of cis-bis(ethylenediamine)isothiocyanonitrocobalt(III) ion with peroxodisulphate was investigated in the medium of 0.01 M-HClO4 in dependence on the ionic strength and temperature and the reaction products were identified. Extrapolated values of thermodynamic activation parameters were determined from the temperature dependence of the rate constants extrapolated to zero ionic strength. The distance of the closest approach was estimated for the reacting ions by evaluating the primary salt effect. To elucidate the mechanism, the influence of the cyclic polyether 18-crown-6 on the reaction rate was followed.

Rates of formation and destruction of the alkoxyphosphonium ion, the intermediate in the Michaelis–Arbuzov reactions of some methyl esters of trivalent phosphorus acids with methyl iodide, are followed by a conductivity method in the solvent propylene carbonate. Specific conductances of the unstable intermediates are well estimated through stable model salts. Rate constants for both the alkylation of the reagent and the dealkylation of the intermediate are obtained. The conductivity time curves are simulated by adjusting rate constants for two sequential second order reactions, assuming no ion pairing at the concentrations used. In these measurements of the intermediate only, there is no rate-determining step; for the overall reaction the first step is in most cases rate-determining.
