Using time resolved ESR spectroscopy and photoflash conductivity the uncatalysed, first order decay of 2-hydroxy-propyl-2-peroxyl radicals and the uncatalysed, first order generation of O2·̅ and H+ were measured to have the same rate constants. The formation of O2·̅ and H+ was measured in H2O and D2O and a kinetic isotope effect of kH/k =D3.5 was obtained. Comparing the rate constants of the peroxyl radicals derived from methanol, ethanol and 2-propanol it was shown that the rate constant increases with increasing methyl-substitution. In 2-propanol water mixtures the rate constant of the 2-hydroxy-propyl-2-peroxyl radical increases only slightly with increasing polarity of the solvent. The experimental results are in accord with a mechanism which involves a cyclic transition state leading to a concerted elimination of HO2· followed by dissociation into H+ and O2·̅.

Reaction Constants

The oxidation of six aliphatic aldehydes by 2- picolinium chlorochromate (PICC) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) leads to the formation of corresponding carboxylic acids. The reaction is of first order each in PICC. A Michaelis-Menten type of kinetics is observed with respect to the aldehydes. The reaction is catalysed by hydrogen ions. The hydrogen-ion dependence has the form: kobs = a + b[H+]. The oxidation of deuteriated acetaldehyde MeCDO exhibited a substantial primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD = 5.69 at 298 K). The oxidation of acetaldehyde has been studied in nineteen different organic solvents. The solvent effect has been analysed using Taft's and Swain's multiparametric equations. The rate constants correlate well with Taft’s * values, reaction constants being negative. A mechanism involving transfer of hydride ion has been suggested.

The reactivity of the base induced cyclodimerization of 1-(6-arylpyridazin-3-yl)-3-oxidopyridinium chlorides in a pericyclic process have been investigated kinetically at λ 380 nm. The reaction was found to be second order with respect to the liberated betaine and zero order with respect to the base. On the other hand dedimerization (monomer formation) was found to be first order. It was shown that dimerization is favoured at low temperature, whereas dedimerization process is favoured at relatively high temperature (ca 70 °C). Solvent effects on the reaction rate have been found to follow the order ethanol > chloroform ≈ 1,2-dichloroethane. Complete dissociation was accomplished only in 1,2-dichloroethane at ca 70 °C. The thermodynamic activation parameters have been calculated by a standard method. Thus, ∆G# has been found to be independent on substituents and solvents. The high negative values of ∆S# supports the cyclic transition state which is in favour with the concerted mechanism. MO calculations using SCF-PPP approximation method indicated low HOMO-LUMO energy gap of the investigated betaines.

Twelve Δ3-1,3,4-oxadiazolines in which C-2 is also C-4 of a β-lactam moiety (spiro-fused β-lactam oxadiazoline system) were thermolyzed as solutions in benzene. Substituents in the β-lactam portion affect the rate constant for thermal decomposition of the oxadiazolines to N2, acetone, and a β-lactam-4-ylidene. The total spread of first-order rate constants at 100 °C was 47-fold and the average value was 6.7 × 10−4 s−1. A phenyl substituent at N-1 or at C-3 was found to be rate enhancing, relative to methyl. At C-3, H and Cl were also rate enhancing, relative to methyl. The data are interpreted in terms of the differential effects of substituents on the stabilities of the ground states, and on the stabilities of corresponding transition states for concerted, suprafacial, [4π + 2π] cycloreversion. The first products, presumably formed irreversibly, are N2 and a carbonyl ylide. The latter subsequently fragments to form acetone (quantitative) and a β-lactam-4-ylidene.

Hydrogen abstraction by CF3 radicals from CH3COOCH3 and CD3COOCH3 has been studied in the temperature range 78-242°, and data have been obtained for the reactions: CF3 + CH3COOCH3 → CF3H+[C3H5O2] �������������(3) CF3 + CH3COOCH3 → CF3H+CH2COOCH3������������ (4) CF3 + CD3COOCH3 → CF3D+CD2COOCH3������������ (6) CF3 + CD3COOCH3 → CF3H+CD3COOCH2������������ (7) The corresponding rate constants, based on the value of 1013.36 cm3 mol-1 S-1 for the recombination of CF3 radicals, are given by (k in cm3 mol-1 s-1 and E in J mol-1): logk3 = (11.52�0.05)-(35430�380)/19.145T ���� (3)logk4 = (11.19�0.07)-(34680�550)/19.145T ���� (4)logk6 = (11.34�0.06)-(46490�490)/19.145T ���� (6)logk7 = (11.26�0.05)-(36440�400)/19.145T ���� (7)At 400 K, 59% of abstraction occurs from the acetyl group, and 41 % from the methoxy group. The kinetic isotope effect at 400 K for attack on the acetyl group is 25, due mainly to a difference in activation energies.

Reactive Red 2

This study applies photo-Fenton and photo-Fenton-like systems to decolorize C.I. Reactive Red 2 (RR2). The oxidants were H2O2 and Na2S2O8; Fe2+, Fe3+, and Co2+ were used to activate these two oxidants. The effects of oxidant concentration (0.3–2 mmol/L) and temperature (25–55 °C) on decolorization efficiency of the photo-Fenton and photo-Fenton-like systems were determined. The decolorization rate constants (k) of RR2 in the tested systems are consistent with pseudo-first-order kinetics. The rate constant increased as oxidant concentration and temperature increased. Activation energies of RR2 decolorization in the UV/H2O2/Fe2+, UV/H2O2/Fe3+, UV/Na2S2O8/Fe2+ and UV/Na2S2O8/Fe3+ systems were 32.20, 39.54, 35.54, and 51.75 kJ/mol, respectively.

Special Cases

The derivation of the observed first-order rate constants from the "exact" integrated rate equations for the kinetic scheme of reaction 1 is presented. It is shown that the solvolytic exponential first-order rate constant is a special case of the polarimetric rate constant and that the optical activity of the product is determined by a multiplicative ratio of rate constants for the optically important reactions of the ion pair intermediate. A form of the integrated first-order polarimetric rate equation with a linearly independent parameter set is presented. The functions for the first-order rate constants derived using the steady state approximation are special cases of the functions derived from the exact equations, as are the functions for the first-order rate constants for two systems which involve pre-equilibria followed by a slow product forming step. These functions cannot all be derived one from the other. A differential analysis of observed isotope effects as functions of isotope effects on the rate constants for reactions involving the intermediates is presented.

Increasing Temperature

The abstraction of hydrogen/deuterium from CH3CHDCl by ground state chlorine atoms produced photolytically from Cl2 has been investigated at temperatures betwen 280 and 368 K. The relative rates for the internal competition[Formula: see text]are found to conform to an Arrhenius rate law:[Formula: see text]These data, taken together with the external competition results for the C2H5Cl/CH3CHDCl system, in conjunction with the competitive results using CH4 as a primary reference, have yielded the rate constants (cm3 s−1):[Formula: see text]The relatively weak primary kinetic isotope effect, kH/kD, decreases with increasing temperature from 1,855 at 280 K to 1.66 at 365 K. The results are compared with those obtained based on the BEBO method. While both the trend and the magnitude of the kinetic isotope effect are satisfactorily predicted, the activation energy is not.

Transition-state structures for the carbocation–nucleophile combination reactions of (4-substituted-4'- methoxydiphenyl)methyl cations with water, chloride, and bromide ions in acetonitrile–water mixtures have been investigated by measuring the secondary α-deuterium kinetic and equilibrium isotope effects. Rate constants in the combination direction were measured with laser flash photolysis. Equilibrium constants were measured for the water reaction by a comparison method in moderately concentrated sulfuric acid solutions, for the bromide reaction via the observation of reversible combination, and for the chloride reaction from the ratio of the combination rate constant and the rate constant for the ionization of the diarylmethyl chloride product. The fraction of bond making in the transition state has been calculated as the ratio log (kinetic isotope effect):log (equilibrium isotope effect). For the water reaction, there is 50–65% bond making in the transition state; this is also true for cations that are many orders of magnitude less reactive. The same conclusions, 50–65% bond formation in the transition state independent of reactivity, have previously been made in correlations of log kw vs. log KR. Thus, two quite different measures of transition structure provide the same result. The kH:kD values for the halide combinations in 100% acetonitrile are within experimental error of unity. This is consistent with suggestions that these reactions are occurring with diffusional encounter as the rate-limiting step. Addition of water has a dramatic retarding effect on the halide reactions, with rate constants decreasing steadily with increased water content. Small inverse kinetic isotope effects are observed (in 20% acetonitrile:80% water) indicating that carbon—halogen bond formation is rate-limiting. Comparison of the kinetic and equilibrium isotope effects shows ~25 and ~40% bond formation in the transition states for the reactions with bromide and chloride, respectively.Key words: carbocation, isotope effect, transition state, halide.

Tert Butyl Hydroperoxide

Rate constants for abstraction of secondary and tertiary hydrogens from structurally different alkanes by the tert-butylperoxy radical in solution at 30 °C have been determined by competitive experiments in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Rate constants fall in the range 1 × 10−4to 9 × 10−4and 1 × 10−3–2 × 10−2 M−1 s−1 for secondary and tertiary aliphatic C—H bonds, respectively. The most reactive secondary hydrogen is, therefore, almost as reactive as the least reactive tertiary hydrogen. Differences in reactivity within a type of aliphatic C—H bond are governed by differences in steric hindrance to attack by the peroxy radical and by relief of steric strain upon removal of the labile hydrogen. Rate constants for reaction of perdeuterated methylcyclohexane and 3-methylpentane are much smaller than the values calculated from the maximum primary kinetic isotope effect for this reaction.

Marked Enhancement

Substituted syn-benzaldoxime esters are transformed, in an alcoholic solution, to the corresponding nitriles according to first-order kinetics. All ortho substituents were observed to accelerate the rate of nitrile formation relative to the corresponding para derivative. While the ko/kp ratios for the bromo, chloro, fluoro, methoxy, and methyl substituents fall within the range of 2 to 9, the iodo and methylthio substituents are 119 and 11 000 respectively. Isotopic replacement of the aldoximino hydrogen by deuterium gives rise to a kinetic isotope effect, kH/kD being 5.21 for syn-o-chlorobenzaldoxime p-toluenesulfonate, 1.22 for syn-o-iodobenzaldoxime p-toluenesulfonate, and 1.23 for syn-o-methylthiobenzaldoxime o-iodobenzoate. The marked enhancement of rate and the absence of an appreciable isotope effect are considered to be associated with sulfur and iodine participation in the rate-determining step. A mechanism which is capable of explaining the results observed is suggested.
