It then would appear that the spontaneous aquation of product ratio, must not involve the same 5-coordinated species. A plausible interpretation is that in the normal aquation process the leaving Cl is still near enough to the pseudo 5-coordinated species to affect the position of attack by the entering H2O. In relation to Equation 2, spontaneous aquation can be illustrated by Equation 3.

Pollution due to acidification also constitutes a separate chapter. Sources of this type of pollution and various naturally occurring processes in the atmosphere and soil, as well as aquatic processes, are summarized. When reviewing environmental impacts, terrestrial, aquatic effects, impact on both human health and structures and materials are in focus. Of particular importance is a brief summary of international agreements and emission and pollution effects control measures introduced in certain countries. 

In the final year of the program, more specialized courses should be offered in aquatic processes, coastal and marine waters, enviromnental management, and terrestrial environment. For example, a student in the EnE track must successfully complete three courses from the specialized elective courses. Examples of these courses could be ... 

Although various mechanisms were proposed in order to explain the reactivity behavior of [Ru (NH3)5X] complexes in their reactions with NO, including rate-determining outer-sphere electron-transfer process or rate-determining aquation process, none of them was completely consistent with all kinetic and electrochemical data measured in the study. Therefore, another mechanism was postulated to account for the unusual fast reaction of nitric oxide with a series of investigated Ru(III) ammine complexes (94). It involves a unique combination of associative l%and binding and concerted electron transfer as shown in reaction (7). 

The last reaction steps for both isomers describe aquation processes in which the strong labdization effect of NO leads to the displacement of the trans ammine Hgand in the case of the cis isomer, whereas acid-catalyzed release of neutral HONO occurs for the trans isomer (see Schemes 9 and 10, respectively) (95). 

The importance of the aquation of the unprotonated complex (the acid-independent pathway) to the overall aquation process appears to decrease as the number of cyanide ligands increases. This pathway is important only for... 

CIO7, or Cl", deposited in a conducting film generated by copolymerization of the ruthenium complex with e.g., pyrrole or 3-methylthiophen, when this film is immersed in acetonitrile. Displacement of chloride is slower when the appropriate film is immersed in water this aquation process is photo-catalyzed." Variable-temperature NMR has given some information on intramolecular conformational changes in the constrained ligands (62) and (63) [X=—CHj— to — (CH2)4—]. The inversion barrier of 44kJmol" ... 

An unusual example of a technitium(V)-mediated imine hydrolysis of (24) has been reported the hydrolysis rates were dramatically increased upon coordination to the metal ion. ° The hydration of di(2-pyridyl)ketone continues to be of interest, and examples of chromium(III) and ruthenium(II) complexes of the hydrated form (25) have been characterized. The complex cation [Ru(bpy)2L] (L = 2-pyridinealdehyde) also undergoes a reversible aquation process to generate (26). The electrochemical behavior of the complex has been investigated, and it has been shown that in water, oxidation at the metal center is associated with the hydration of the carbonyl. ...
