8-hydroxy quinoline constant

Attempts have been made to deduce the structure of the predominant form of a potentially tautomeric compound from the shifts which occur in the ultraviolet spectrum of the compound in question on passing from neutral to basic or acidic solutions. The fact that no bathochromic shifts were observed for 2- and 4-hydroxy quinoline and 1-hydroxyisoquinoline under these conditions was taken as evidence that they existed in the oxo form [similar work on substituted quinol-4-ones led to no definite conclusions ]. A knowledge of the dissociation constants is essential to studies of this type, and the conclusions can, in any case, be only very tentative. A further dif-... 

Recently kinetic data have become available for the nitration in sulphuric acid of some of these hydroxy compounds (table 10.3). For 4-hydroxyquinoline and 4-methoxyquinoline the results verify the early conclusions regarding the nature of the substrate being nitrated in sulphuric acid. Plots of log Q against — (Lf + logioflHao) fo " these compounds and for i-methyl-4-quinolone have slopes of i-o, i-o and 0-97 at 25 C respectively, in accord with nitration via the majority species ( 8.2) which is in each case the corresponding cation of the type (iv). At a given acidity the similarity of the observed second-order rate constants for the nitrations of the quinolones and 4-methoxy-quinoline at 25 °C supports the view that similarly constructed cations are involved. Application of the encounter criterion eliminates the possibilities of a... 

Baughman (1992) measured the disappearance rate constants for a number of solvent and disperse azo, anthraquinone, and quinoline dyes in anaerobic sediments. The half-lives ranged from 0.1 to 140 days. Product studies of the azo dyes showed that reduction of the azo linkages and nitro groups resulted in the formation of substituted anilines. The 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone dyes underwent complex reactions thought to involve reduction and replacement of amino with hydroxy groups. Demethylation of methoxyanthraquinone dyes and reduction of anthraquinone dyes to anthrones also was observed. 

The molar fractions of oxo (thiono) and hydroxy (thiol) tautomers for a series of monohydroxy- and monomercapto-substituted pyridines, quinolines, and acridines were calculated from the acid-base constants of these compounds at the isoelectric points in an amphiphilic medium (80ZOR1499). 

The kinetics of complex formation between Alaq and ferron (8-hydroxy-7-iodo-5-quinoline) have been studied by the stopped-flow method. A complex picture involving at least three transients is revealed, and it is thought that the major pathway in the formation of the mono complex involves Al(OH)2 assuming a normal Id mechanism, the rate constant for water exchange at this species is 4.0 X 10 s ...
