The thermal decomposition of thia2ol-2-yl-carbonyl peroxide in benzene, bromobenzene, or cumene affords thiazole together with good yields of 2-arylthiazoles but negligible amounts of esters. Thiazol-4-ylcarbonyl peroxide gives fair yields of 4-arylthiazoles, but the phenyl ester is also a major product in benzene, indicating reactions of both thiazol-4-yl radicals and thiazol-4-carbonyloxy radicals. Thiazole-5-carbonyl peroxide gives...

Cyclohexane, produced from the partial hydrogenation of benzene [71-43-2] also can be used as the feedstock for A manufacture. Such a process involves selective hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexene, separation of the cyclohexene from unreacted benzene and cyclohexane (produced from over-hydrogenation of the benzene), and hydration of the cyclohexane to A. Asahi has obtained numerous patents on such a process and is in the process of commercialization (85,86). Indicated reaction conditions for the partial hydrogenation are 100—200°C and 1—10 kPa (0.1—1.5 psi) with a Ru or zinc-promoted Ru catalyst (87—90). The hydration reaction uses zeotites as catalyst in a two-phase system. Cyclohexene diffuses into an aqueous phase containing the zeotites and there is hydrated to A. The A then is extracted back into the organic phase. Reaction temperature is 90—150°C and reactor residence time is 30 min (91—94). 

Kinetic mles of oxidation of MDASA and TPASA by periodate ions in the weak-acidic medium at the presence of mthenium (VI), iridium (IV), rhodium (III) and their mixtures are investigated by spectrophotometric method. The influence of high temperature treatment with mineral acids of catalysts, concentration of reactants, interfering ions, temperature and ionic strength of solutions on the rate of reactions was investigated. Optimal conditions of indicator reactions, rate constants and energy of activation for arylamine oxidation reactions at the presence of individual catalysts are determined. 

Peroxymonosulphuric acid (PMSA, H SO ) proved to be a promising oxidizer in reactions with chemiluminescent substances (luminol) with participation of such ions as Mn(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), Cr(IV), V(V). The literature data show the possibility of utilization PMSA in indicating reaction with ferroin ([Fe(l,10-phenanthrolyne) ] ) which is accelerated by Mn(II) compounds. 

It was found that sorbed palladium might catalyse reaction of Mn(III) reduction by Cf not only after it s removing from coal, but AC with palladium, Pd/AC, has also his own catalytic effect. On the base of dependence between characteristics of AC, chemical state of palladium on AC surface and catalytic action of Pd/AC in indicator reaction it might establish, that catalytic action concerns only to non-reduced or partly reduced palladium ions connected with chloride ions on coal surface. The presence or absence of catalytic action of Pd/AC in above-mentioned reaction may be proposed for determination of chemical state of palladium on AC surface. Catalytic effect was also used for palladium micro-amounts determination by soi ption-catalytic method. 

DETERMINATION OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS BY RADICAL INDICATOR REACTIONS IN KINETIC METHODS OF ANALYSIS... 

The determination of organic compounds by their direct catalytic effect on indicator reaction rates is a relatively unexplored ai ea promising valuable analytical chai acteristics, as we have recently shown in the determination of traces of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) by the oxidation of 3,3, 5,5 -tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by atmospheric oxygen initiated with persulfate [1]. 

The most suitable method of fast and simple control of the presence of dangerous substances is analytical detection by means of simplified methods - the so-called express-tests which allow quickly and reliably revealing and estimating the content of chemical substances in various objects. Express-tests are based on sensitive reactions which fix analytical effect visually or by means of portable instalments. Among types of indicator reactions were studied reactions of complex formation, oxidation-reduction, diazotization, azocoupling and oxidative condensation of organic substances, which are accompanied with the formation of colored products or with their discoloration. 

As Table 15.1 indicates, reactions leading to alcohols are not in short supply. Nevertheless, several more will be added to the list in the present chapter—testimony to the importance of alcohols in synthetic organic chemistry. Some of these methods involve reduction of car bonyl groups ... 

Organic derivatives fall into 4 classes RP0(0H)2, HP0(0R)2, R P0(0R)2 and the phosphite esters R(OR)3 this latter class has no purely inorganic analogues, though it is, of course, closely related to PCI3. Some preparative routes have already been indicated. Reactions with alcohols depend on conditions ... 

By contrast, the rate-acidity profiles for nitration of 3-nitro-4-pyridone, 3-and 5-methyl-2-pyridone and l,5-dimethyl-2-pyridone resemble each other and differ from the above-indicated reaction upon the free base, and correction of the observed rates to allow for the concentration of free base actually present gave rate-acidity profiles of the expected form the corrected entropies of activation then turned out to be positive. Furthermore, if the logarithms of the corrected rate coefficients obtained in media of low acidity were plotted against +log aHlQ, then slopes of near unity were obtained (see above, p. 18), but not otherwise. A similar result was obtained from the nitration data for 4-pyridone in media of low acidity suggesting that here it reacts as the free base. A further test which was applied was to calculate the concentration of nitronium ions in the various media and to correct the observed rate coefficients for this the logarithms of these coeffi-... 

Katritzky et al.508 have measured rates of deuteration of aminopyridine by deuterated sulphuric acid (Table 146), and for the 4-amino and 2-amino-5-methyl compounds, the general increase in rate with increasing acidity, dlogkjd (—H0) 0.6, shows reaction to be occurring on the conjugate acids. For the latter compound this is only true at acidities > —H0 = 4.0, below which rates are relatively independent of acidity indicating reaction on the free base. For the 2,6-dichloro... 

In neutral and alkaline media, the rate of exchange at the 3 and 6 position of 4-aminopyridazine is independent of acidity but decreases markedly when the media become more acidic. This was interpreted in terms of a rate-determining removal of the 6-proton by deuteroxide ion to give the ylid (XXIV), which reacts with deuterium oxide in a fast step. A similar result for the 3 and 6 positions of py-ridazin-4-one suggests the same mechanism. For reaction at the 5 position, the rate-acidity profile indicated reaction on the free base as did that for the 5 position of pyridazin-3-one, though the appearance of a maximum in the rate at — HQ = 0.8 was anomalous and suggested incursion of a further mechanism. 

The rate-acidity profile for pyrimidin-2-one indicated reaction on the free base but since the derived second-order rate coefficient is 104 times greater than that for 2-pyridone, and the acidity dependence in the H0 region was also greater, the slope of log kt versus —H0 plot being 0.45, cf. 0.15 for 2-pyridone reaction was, therefore, postulated as occurring via a covalent hydrate, hydration taking place at the 4 position. Methyl substitution increased the rate as expected and N-methyl substitution produced a larger effect than 4,6-dimethyl substitution and this may be due to alteration of the amount of covalent hydration at equilibrium. The data... 

Pulsed source techniques have been used to study thermal energy ion-molecule reactions. For most of the proton and H atom transfer reactions studied k thermal) /k 10.5 volts /cm.) is approximately unity in apparent agreement with predictions from the simple ion-induced dipole model. However, the rate constants calculated on this basis are considerably higher than the experimental rate constants indicating reaction channels other than the atom transfer process. Thus, in some cases at least, the relationship of k thermal) to k 10.5 volts/cm.) may be determined by the variation of the relative importance of the atom transfer process with ion energy rather than by the interaction potential between the ion and the neutral. For most of the condensation ion-molecule reactions studied k thermal) is considerably greater than k 10.5 volts/cm.).

A new approach to study root exudation of distinct compounds in soil-grown plants uses inoculation of roots with genetically engineered reporter bacteria, which are able to indicate the presence of particular compounds by indicator reactions, such as production of ice-nucleation proteins. This technique has been employed to detect the release of amino acids from roots of soil-grown A vena harbata (56).

Here we shall confine ourselves to the solvents benzene and 1,2-dichloroethane (class 8). Considering benzene, many investigators have demonstrated since the 1930s the feasibility of titrations in this solvent using both potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods, paying much attention to acid-base indicator reactions under the influence of primary, secondary and tertiary amines. Association of carboxylic acids in benzene was studied at a later stage, mainly on the basis of colligative properties, IR spectroscopy and solvent extraction. ... 

The generalized stoichiometric coefficients are defined as positive quantities for the products of the reaction and as negative quantities for the reactants. The coefficients of species that are neither produced nor consumed by the indicated reaction are taken to be zero. Equation 1.1.2 has been written in inverted form with the zero first to emphasize the use of this sign convention, even though this inversion is rarely used in practice.

Studies of hydrosilation with trichlorosilane-d (2f) proved that exchange can also take place between SiD and C—H bonds in olefins during hydrosilation. Isobutylene was chosen as the olefin for this study because both it and isobutyltrichlorosilane have H NMR spectra that are easy to interpret, and because movement of the double bond can give rise to no detectable isomerization. Excess trichlorosilane-d with isobutylene and chloroplatinic acid was sealed into a Pyrex tube and kept near 25°C overnight. Deuterosilation was complete in less than 1 hour. Analysis of the product after about 16 hours indicated reactions that can be summed up as follows ... 

Uncertainty in the calculation, however, affects the reliability of values reported for saturation indices. Reaction log Ks for many minerals are determined by extrapolating the results of experiments conducted at high temperature to the conditions of interest. The error in this type of extrapolation shows up directly in the denominator of log Q/K. Error in calculating activity coefficients (see Chapter 8), on the other hand, directly affects the computed activity product Q. The effect is pronounced for reactions with large coefficients, such as those for clay minerals.
