Complex ratio

Information about the properties of the sample are contained in the complex ratio, p, of the Fresnel coefficients of reflection of the parallel (rp) and perpendicular (rg) incident plane polarized electrical field vectors. 

The unmodified complex can be applied in very dilute concentrations allowing total turnover numbers (TONs), or a substrate (NAD(P)) to catalyst (rhodium complex) ratio of up to 400 [41]. This efficiency was due to the design of a three-dimensional electrode, which also resulted in an extraordinary space-time yield of the reduced cofactor of up to 1 kg IT1 per day. 

The determination of OXPHOS activity is best made with the aid of spectrophoto-metric assays [55, 65]. Using a judicious set of electron donors and acceptors, it is possible to measure the activity of MRC complexes either isolated or in combination, as described below. Beside the residual activity of each complex, ratios of their respective activities are of fundamental importance. Indeed, the balance between complexes (the ratio between their activities) determines on the one hand the relative access of each dehydrogenase to the MRC, and on the other hand the amount of superoxides possibly escaping the chain [55]. It is therefore quite important to both analyze residual activities corrected for the variable amount of mitochondria using the citrate synthase as reference enzyme, and the various ratios inside the MRC [66,67]. It is also important to note that enzyme determination is (supposedly at least) done under maximal rate (Vmax) conditions only, often leaving aside any discrete anomalies possibly affecting affinity and regulatory properties. 

Since NMR measures a rate constant per molecule, a first-order process will show an invariant rate constant with increasing concentration at a given temperature. In order to determine whether the triphenylphosphine dissociation and association were first-order processes, we measured the rate constants for this system at increased ligand-to-complex ratios and decreased rhodium concentration. 

The slopes of the lines laid across the data points obtained at different temperatures for the three systems having different ligand-to-complex ratios were approximately the same. In other words, the activation energy for hydroformylation is about 22 kcal mol-1 in each of...

Despite its tetranuclear structure in the solid state, the dicopper(II) complex was found to dissociate in solution into dinuclear units at the concentration levels used for catecholase activity studies. Similarly to the copper(II) complex with the ligand [22]py4pz, the present complex also catalyzes the oxidation of the model substrate DTBCH2 in methanol. However, several unexpected observations have been made in the present case. First, the rate-determining step in the catalytic reaction was found to change with the substrate-to-complex ratio. Thus, at low substrate-to-...

Since the moment of inertia ratio will be nearly unity, the major source of the isotope effect at a given energy is the activated complex ratio. A pure intramolecular statistical secondary effect can scarcely arise, since by definition no net differential effect on the competing reaction coordinates arises due to isotopic substitution. However, in practice, small mechanistic effects mentioned earlier can exist for isotopic substitution which preferentially affects one of the competing bond-rupture sites. 

The variation of line-widths of the methyl resonances as a function of Eu(fod)3 concentrations is shown in Fig. 10.28. It is clear that the maximum line-width occurs when Eu(fod)3 complex ratio of 1 3. This is in agreement with the predicted value for Eu(fod)3 complex ratio of 0.33 by differentiating equation (10.32). 

The electrolyte systems El I, II, and III resemble one another and show relatively low cathodic limiting current densities. The cathodic limiting current densities of the various El II electrolytes clearly ascend with increasing value of the 1 2/1 1 complex ratio, as related to electrolyte prehandling. The cathodic limiting current den-... 

As a comparison, the extraction of Th from xylene by trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), Cyanex 921 (similarly available through Cytec Inc.) (Table 19), has also been studied and extractant dependency indicates a 1 2 metahextractant complex ratio like that seen for TRPO.
