Exchange reactions parameters

Fig. 2a-c. Kinetic zone diagram for the catalysis at redox modified electrodes a. The kinetic zones are characterized by capital letters R control by rate of mediation reaction, S control by rate of subtrate diffusion, E control by electron diffusion rate, combinations are mixed and borderline cases b. The kinetic parameters on the axes are given in the form of characteristic currents i, current due to exchange reaction, ig current due to electron diffusion, iji current due to substrate diffusion c. The signpost on the left indicates how a position in the diagram will move on changing experimental parameters c% bulk concentration of substrate c, Cq catalyst concentration in the film Dj, Dg diffusion coefficients of substrate and electrons k, rate constant of exchange reaction k distribution coefficient of substrate between film and solution d> film thickness (from ref. 

It can be difficult to estimate theoretically the bond lengths and vibrational frequencies for the activated complex and the energy barrier for its formation. It is of interest to assess how the uncertainty in these parameters affect the rate constant predicted from transition state theory (TST). For the exchange reaction... 

As in the case of the hydrogen-deuterium exchange reaction, so far as K is positive, its value, as is evident from (84) (since the parameters ev and constant over fairly wide temperature ranges) falls with rise of temperature. This is what is observed in reality (53, 57).

Figure 2. Equipotential sections through the potential energy surface for an exchange reaction. The sections define ellipses if the surfaces are parabolic the top left set refer to the initial state (precursor complex) and the bottom right set refer to the final state (successor complex). The dashed line indicates the reaction coordinate. Parameters P and Pa reflect the state of polarization of the solvent, and coordinates d2 and da reflect the inner-shell configurations of the two reactants...

The significance of these quantities is analogous to that for the activation parameters for homogeneous self-exchange reactions. Thus, AH equals the activation enthalpy for conditions...

A careful compilation of as many kinetic parameters as possible can lead to overwhelming support for a mechanism. Only occasionally are such comprehensive data available. The occurrence is nicely illustrated by the exchange reaction (M = Nb, Ta and Sb X = Cl and Br L = variety of neutral ligands) ... 

The transmission coefficient k is approximately 1 for reactions in which there is substantial (>4kJ) electronic coupling between the reactants (adiabatic reactions). Ar is calculable if necessary but is usually approximated by Z, the effective collision frequency in solution, and assumed to be 10" M s. Thus it is possible in principle to calculate the rate constant of an outer-sphere redox reaction from a set of nonkinetic parameters, including molecular size, bond length, vibration frequency and solvent parameters (see inset). This represents a remarkable step. Not surprisingly, exchange reactions of the type... 

In conclusion, it should be mentioned that extraction parameters (the equilibrium constants of exchange reactions and ion-pair stabilities) were introduced into the theory of ion-selective electrodes in [2, 31,33, 34, 35,69]. The theory of ISEs with a liquid membrane and a diffusion potential in the membrane was extended by Buck etal. [11, 13, 14, 73, 74] and Morf [54]. 

For liquid membranes, the exchange reaction has to be modified insofar as every cation in the membrane, free or complexed, assumes the status of an individual particle (27). No detailed investigation is necessary, therefore, to recognize that the selectivity parameter Kyot is variable in this case, quite contrary to the definition in Eq. (16).
