Detailed balance, significance reaction rates

Isotopic substitution in a molecule can change its rate of reaction significantly and/or shift the balance of equilibria in which it is involved. The magnitude and direction of the isotope effect (IE) - that is, whether a reaction rate or equilibrium concentration increases or decreases upon isotopic substitution - is connected directly to differences in structure between the molecule in question and its transition state for a particular reaction (in the case of a kinetic isotope effect, KIE) or its partners in equilibrium (in the case of an equilibrium isotope effect, EIE). Such effects -whether obtained through experiment or theory or a combination of both - can reveal many intimate details of a mechanistic pathway. [Pg.198]
