Rate constants for oxygen-base-catalyzed enolization of di- and tricarbonyl compounds can be correlated by a Marcus equation, with hydroxide requiring a slightly different curve from other oxyanions. Data for monocarbonyl compounds fall on a slightly different, but similar, set of curves. The equilibrium constants for enolization for a set of monocarbonyl compounds were derived from recent work in this laboratory. These correlations permit estimation of pKaKeto for a number of other monocarbonyl compounds from kinetics data in the literature. Elaboration of methods previously developed permits estimation of pKaEnol. From the values of pKaEnol and pKaKeto, pKEnol can be derived. It is pointed out that pKaKeto for acetone and acetophenone can be determined from the kinetics of the reaction with hypochlorite in base; the values so derived are in good agreement with those used in this work. pKEnol values are reported for: 1,3-dichloroacetone, 2.0; 1,1-dichloroacetone, 4.9; ethyl pyruvate, 4.2; bromoacetone, 3.5; chloroacetone, 3.7; l-phenyl-2-propanone, 4.5 (CH2); 7.2 (CH3); p-nitroacetophenone, 7.1; ethyl levulinate, 5.6; methoxyacetone, 6.9 (CH2); 7.6 (CH3); benzalacetone, 7.6; p-methoxyacetophenone, 7.8; 3-methyl-2-butanone, 8.0 (CH); 2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone, 9.4.

The paper is a detailed study of the cyclic voltammetric behaviour of Eu3+ at HMDE in molar solutions of KCl, KBr, KI, KSCN and in 0.1M-EDTA solution with an indigenously built equipment. The computed values of the rate constants at various scan rates show good agreement with those reported by other electrochemical methods. In addition, the results indicate participation of a bridged activated complex in the electron-transfer step, the rate constants showing the trend SCN- > I- > Br- > Cl- usually observed for bridging order of these anions in homogeneous electron-transfer reactions. The results for Eu-EDTA system, however, indicate involvement of an outer sphere activated complex in the electrode reaction.

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 kinetics of bromination of the 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-2-oxopyrimidinium cation (Q+) in aqueous media (pH 0–5) have been studied using the stopped-flow method. At the higher acidities (pH < 2) the results are consistent with rate determining attack by bromine upon the pseudobase (QOH), whereas at low acidities (pH > 4) it appears that pseudobase formation is rate determining. The change occurs because at high acidity the reversal of the pseudobase QOH to the cation is fast relative to bromine attack, whereas at low acidity the converse is true. Results obtained at intermediate acidities (pH 2–4) are consistent with this interpretation.A separate kinetic study of pseudobase formation (and decomposition) yielded rate constants in good agreement with those derived from the bromination study.

The kinetics of the reaction of the tetrakis(1-methylpyridium-4-yl)porphyrin tetracation, [ H 2( TMPyP )]4+, with gold(III) ions were studied along with equilibria of gold(III) species in aqueous medium at 25°C, I = 0.10 M ( NaNO 3). The equilibrium constants for the formation of [ AuCl 4-n( OH ) n ]- ( n = 0,…,4), defined as β n = [ AuCl 4- n ( OH ) n ]- [ Cl -] n / [ AuCl 4-][ OH -] n were found to be that log β1 = 7.94 ± 0.03, log β2 = 15.14 ± 0.03, log β3 = 21.30 ± 0.05 and log β4 = 26.88 ± 0.05. The overall reaction was first order with respect to each of the total [ Au (III)] and [ H 2 TMPyP 4+]. On the basis of pH dependence on rate constants and the hydrolysis of gold(III), the rate expression can be written as d [ Au ( TMPyP )5+]/ dt = ( k 1[ AuCl 4-] + k2[ AuCl 3( OH )-] + k3[ AuCl 2( OH )2-] + k4[ AuCl ( OH )3-])[ H 2 TMPyP 4+], where k1, k2, k3 and k4 were found to be (2.16 ± 0.31) × 10-1, (6.56 ± 0.19) × 10-1, (1.07 ± 0.24) × 10-1, and (0.29 ± 0.21) × 10-1 M -1. s -1, respectively. The kinetic data revealed that the trichloromonohydroxogold(III) species, [ AuCl 3( OH )]-, is the most reactive. The higher reactivity of [ AuCl 3( OH )]- is explained by hydrogen bonding formation between the hydroxyl group of [ AuCl 3( OH )]- and the pyrrole hydrogen atom of [ H 2( TMPyP )]4+. Furthermore, applying the Fuoss equation to the observed rate constants at different ionic strengths, the apparent net charge of [ H 2( TMPyP )]4+ was calculated to be +3.5.

Reaction Kinetics of Carbon Dioxide in Aqueous Diethanolamine Solutions Using the Stopped-Flow Technique The pseudo-first-order rate constants (kOV) for the reactions between CO2 and diethanolamine have been studied using the stopped-flow technique in an aqueous solution at 293, 298, 303 and 313 K. The amine concentrations ranged from 167 to 500 mol·m-3. The overall reaction rate constant was found to increase with amine concentration and temperature. Both the zwitterion and termolecular mechanisms were applied to correlate the experimentally obtained rate constants. The values of SSE quality index showed a good agreement between the experimental data and the corresponding fit by the use of both mechanisms.

The interaction between recombinant human cystatin C and the cysteine proteinases papain and actinidin was studied by spectroscopic, kinetic and equilibrium methods. The absorption, near-u.v.c.d. and fluorescence-emission difference spectra for the cystatin C-proteinase interactions were all found to be similar to the corresponding spectra for chicken cystatin. The kinetics of binding of cystatin C to the two enzymes were best described by a simple reversible one-step bimolecular mechanism, like the kinetics of the reaction of chicken cystatin with several cysteine proteinases. Moreover, the second-order association rate constants at 25 degrees C, pH 7.4 and I0.15, of 1.1 x 10(7) and 2.4 x 10(6) M-1.s-1 for the reactions of cystatin C with papain and actinidin respectively, were similar to the corresponding rate constants for the chicken inhibitor and close to the value expected for a diffusion-controlled rate. The dissociation equilibrium constants, approx. 11 fM and approx. 19 nM for the binding of cystatin C to papain and actinidin respectively, were also comparable with the dissociation constants for chicken cystatin. The affinity between cystatin C and several inactivated papains or actinidins decreased with increasing size of the inactivating group in a manner similar to that in earlier studies with the chicken inhibitor. Together, these results strongly indicate that the mechanisms of the reactions of cystatin C and chicken cystatin with cysteine proteinases are identical or highly similar, but differ from that of reactions between serine-proteinase inhibitors and their target enzymes. The model for the proteinase-inhibitor interaction, based on the X-ray structure of chicken cystatin, therefore should be largely applicable also to human cystatin C.

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.

Reaction of [CoXY(en)(AB)]n+ (AB = glycinato or (S)-α-alaninato anion, X = H2O, Y = Cl; AB = (S)-valinato anion, X = Y = Cl) with HCO-3) or Ag(2CO)3 gives mixture of mer- and fac-[CoCO(3(en)(AB)] isomers, ratio of which is temperature dependent. Both isomers undergo in aqueous solution to spontaneous isomerization which does not occur when carbonato group is replaced by oxalato or malonato one. This suggests that the source of stereolability in these complexes is a strain imposed by the four-membered carbonato chelate ring. The equilibrium constants (K = fac/mer) increase in the order KGly < KVal < KAla. The total rate constants obtained at 45 °C and 55 °C increase in the order kAla < kVal < kGly. λ-mer-[CoCO3(en)(S)-Val)] isomer undergoes at 22 °C racemization at the octahedral centre yielding the mixture of 59% δ and 41% λ isomers.

The reaction kinetics of 125I-labelled mouse monoclonal antibodies binding to three cell-surface antigens of rat thymocytes (Thy-1.1, W3/25) were studied. The differences between bivalent and univalent interactions were determined by using antibody in the F(ab′)2 or Fab′ form and by using antigen in polymeric or monomeric forms. Association rate constants (k+1), dissociation rate constants (k-1) and equilibrium constants were determined. Also, the dissociation kinetics of rabbit antibodies against rat Thy-1 antigen were studied. The major findings were as follows. (i) With F(ab′)2 antibody there was no simple relationship between antigen density at the cell surface and extent of bivalent binding. Extensive univalent binding was observed unless the antibody had a high k-1 for the univalent interaction, in which case all binding was bivalent. (ii) k+1 values were similar for F(ab′)2 or Fab′ antibody, and for the different antibodies were in the range 0.8 × 10(5)–1.1 × 10(6) M-1.s-1. These differences were sufficient to affect the interpretation of serological assays with the different antibodies. (iii) Antibody bound bivalently dissociated much more slowly than that bound univalently. However, the k-1 values for the univalently bound antibody were sufficiently low in most cases that the lifetime of the univalent complex was similar to or greater than the time needed for the assay. Thus the results could be interpreted on the basis of irreversible reactions. The overall conclusion from the study is that for an understanding of the binding of antibody to cell-surface antigens the kinetics of the interaction are of major importance and theories based on equilibrium binding are inappropriate.

Apomyoglobin was prepared by an extremely mild modification of the acid/butanone technique, and the kinetics of the recombination reaction between this preparation and alkaline haematin were studied. The recombination has been shown to be precisely second-order and mono-phasic. Rate constants obtained from the study are in good agreement with values obtained previously by an indirect technique not involving separation of haem and apoprotein.
