Kinetics Of Reduction

The kinetics of the reduction of colloidal MnO2 by glyphosate has been investigated spectrophotometrically in an aqueous and micellar (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium lauryl sulfate) media. The reaction follows first-order kinetics with respect to colloidal MnO2 in both the aqueous and micellar media. The rate of oxidation increases with increase in [glyphosate] in the lower concentration range but becomes independent at its higher concentrations. The addition of both the anionic (NaLS) and cationic (CTAB) micelles increased the rate of reduction of colloidal MnO2 by glyphosate while the nonionic TX-100 micelles did not influence the rate of reaction. In both aqueous and micellar media, the oxidation of glyphosate occurs through its adsorption over colloidal MnO2 surface. The reaction in micellar media was treated by considering the pseudophase model. The values of reaction rates and binding constants in the presence of micelles were determined.

Kinetics of saccharose fermentation by Kombucha is not yet well defined due to lack of knowledge of reaction mechanisms taking place during this process. In this research kinetics of saccharose fermentation by Kombucha was analysed using the suggested empirical model. The data were obtained on 1.5 g L-1 of black tea, with 66.47 g L-1 of saccharose and using 10% (v/v) or 15% (v/v) of Kombucha. Total number of viable cells was as follows: approximately 5x105 of yeast cells per mL of the inoculum and approximately 2x106 of bacteria cells per mL of the inoculum. The samples were analysed after 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 10 days. Their pH values and contents of saccharose, glucose, fructose, total acids and ethanol were determined. A saccharose concentration model was defined as sigmoidal function at 22oC and 30oC, and with 10% (v/v) and 15% (v/v) of inoculum quantity. Determination coefficients of the functions were very high (R2>0.99). Reaction rates were calculated as first derivatives of Boltzmann?s functions. No simple correlation between rate of reaction and independent variables (temperature and inoculum concentration) was found. Analysis of empirical model indicated that saccharose fermentation by Kombucha occurred according to very complex kinetics.

It is important to elucidate the effects of heparin on the α2-antithrombin (ATIII) inactivation of serine proteases in order to understand the pharmacological activity of heparin. We have studied the enzyme kinetics of the ATIII inactivation of these proteases, and the effects of heparin on these interactions, using a common amide peptide substrate and protein substrates. We also studied the interactions of heparin with the three proteases.We conclude that the mechanism of the catalytic effect of heparin (observed at 0. 005 unit/ml) toward the thrombin- ATIII reaction is different from the mechanism whereby heparin (only at very high concentration, e.g., 10 unit/ml) can induce an enhanced rate in the plasmin-ATIII reaction. We conclude that the first mechanism involves a heparinthrombin complex, while the mechanism with plasmin involves a heparin-ATIII complex which forms only at high heparin concentrations. This is consistent with known appropriate binding constants. We found that heparin has no effect on the very rapid inactivation of trypsin by ATIII. We further conclude that there is no common mechanism whereby clinically relevant levels of heparin cause general enhanced ATIII-protease reaction rates.We suggest ATIII depletion during heparin therapy might be avoided by using low heparin levels, which would not allow heparin-ATIII complexes to form, yet which would catalyze the thrombin-ATIII reaction. Our finding that ATIII inactivates trypsin at a rate similar to the heparin-catalyzed thrombin-ATIII reaction suggests a physiological role for ATIII in the control of trypsin-like enzymes.

Abstract. The method of entrainment-limited kinetics enables atmospheric chemistry models that do not resolve clouds to simulate heterogeneous (surface and multiphase) cloud chemistry more accurately and efficiently than previous numerical methods. The method, which was previously described for reactions with first-order kinetics in clouds, incorporates cloud entrainment into the kinetic rate coefficient. This technical note shows how bimolecular reactions with second-order kinetics in clouds can also be treated with entrainment-limited kinetics, enabling efficient simulations of a wider range of cloud chemistry reactions. Accuracy is demonstrated using oxidation of SO2 to S(VI) – a key step in formation of acid rain – as an example. Over a large range of reaction rates, cloud fractions, and initial reactant concentrations, the numerical errors in the entrainment-limited bimolecular reaction rates are typically << 1 % and always < 4 %, which is far smaller than the errors found in several commonly used methods of simulating cloud chemistry with fractional cloud cover.

The kinetics of acid hydrolysis of bis(2,2';6',2''–terpyridyl) iron(II) complex has been studied in CTAB/Hexane/Chloroform reverse micelles. The reaction obeys first order kinetics with respect to each of the reactants at all values of W, {W= [H2O]/[CTAB]}. In the reverse micellar medium, the reaction is much slower compared to aqueous medium due to low micropolarity of the water pools which does not facilitate a reaction between reactants of same charge. The effect of variation of W {W=[H2O]/[CTAB]} at constant [CTAB] and variation of [CTAB] at fixed W has been studied. The second order rate constant (k2) of the reaction increases as the value of W increases up to W = 8.88 and remains constant thereafter and it is independent of concentration of [CTAB] at constant W. The variation of rate of reaction with W has been explained by considering variation of micropolarity and ionic strength of water pools of reverse micelles with W. Copyright © 2020 BCREC Group.

The polymerization of 1–3 M 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) initiated by riboflavin/triethanolamine system has been studied in the pH range 6.0–9.0. An approximate measure of the kinetics of the reaction during the initial stages (~5% HEMA conversion) has been made to avoid the effect of any variations in the volume of the medium. The concentration of HEMA in polymerized solutions has been determined by a UV spectrophotometric method at 208 nm with a precision of ±3%. The initial rate of polymerization of HEMA follows apparent first-order kinetics and the rates increase with pH. This may be due to the presence of a labile proton on the hydroxyl group of HEMA. The second-order rate constants for the interaction of triethanolamine and HEMA lie in the range of 2.36 to  M−1 s−1 at pH 6.0–9.0 suggesting an increased activity with pH. An increase in the viscosity of HEMA solutions from 1 M to 3 M leads to a decrease in the rate of polymerization probably as a result of the decrease in the reactivity of the flavin triplet state. The effect of pH and viscosity of the medium on the rate of reaction has been evaluated.

The kinetics of the reaction between Niaq2+ and the bidentate ligand pyridine-2-azo-p-dimethylaniline (PADA) have been investigated in micellar solutions of sodium decyl-, octyl-, and hexylsulfates using the stopped-flow technique. The rate of enhancement decreased with decreasing alkyl-chain length and from the Berezin or Robinson model could be quantitatively related to the independently measured binding constants of Ni2+ ion and PADA to the micelle surface. The dramatic effect of micelles upon the reaction rates in different directions of the Ni2+/PADA and the Ni2+/murexide reactions served as sensitive indicators of the cmc even at the very limit of micelle formation which relatively concentrated sodium hexylsulfate solutions represent.

The interaction of mercury(II)–glycyl-L-alanine [Hg(II)–Gly-L-Ala]+ complex with ninhydrin has been studied kinetically both in aqueous as well as micellar media (cationic conventional/gemini surfactants) using UV-vis spectrophotometer at 70 ºC and a particular pH 5.0. The study was carried out as functions of [Hg(II)–Gly-L-Ala]+, [ninhydrin], [surfactant] [salts], and solvents (%v/v). The first-order-rate is observed concerning [Hg(II)–Gly-L-Ala]+, whereas fractional-order-rate dependence for [ninhydrin]. It has been found that 14-s-14 geminis enhance the rate of reaction more effectively than related cationic conventional surfactant tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB). The effect of additives such as salts (inorganic/organic) and organic solvents on the rate was also investigated. The reaction rate was explained in terms of the modified pseudo phase model (considering the association/adsorption of both the reactants on the micellar surface) and changes in micellar morphology occurring at higher [geminis]. The Eyring equation is valid for the reaction over the range of temperatures used. Various thermodynamic parameters and binding constants between reactants with the micelles have been evaluated.

AbstractKinetics of the oxidation of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) by methylene blue (MB) catalyzed by Cu(II) have been investigated in presence of HCl. The reaction follows a first order kinetics in MB while the concentration order in NAC is zero. Hydrogen ions retard the rate of reaction. The reaction involves the participation of nanoparticles as revealed by SEM, XRD and FTIR techniques and a gel-like Cu-NAC network acts like the effective catalyst. The reaction conforms to Eley-Rideal mechanism at lower [NAC] while at higher [NAC], the kinetics are explained by extended Eley-Rideal mechanism. The reaction is regulated by the size and morphology of the nanoparticles and is controlled by the entropy of activation.

The kinetics of oxidation of methyl orange by vanadium(V) {V(V)} has been investigated in the pH range 2.3-3.79. In this pH range V(V) exists both in the form of decavanadates and VO2+. The kinetic results are distinctly different from the results obtained for the same reaction in highly acidic solution (pH &lt; 1) where V(V) exists only in the form of VO2+. The reaction obeys first order kinetics with respect to methyl orange but the rate has very little dependence on total vanadium concentration. The reaction is accelerated by H+ ion but the dependence of rate on [H+] is less than that corresponding to first order dependence. The equilibrium between decavanadates and VO2+ explains the different kinetic pattern observed in this pH range. The reaction is markedly accelerated by Triton X-100 micelles. The rate-[surfactant] profile shows a limiting behavior indicative of a unimolecular pathway in the micellar pseudophase.
