Lytic process

The resulting products, such as sulfenic acid or sulfur dioxide, are reactive and induce an acid-catalyzed breakdown of hydroperoxides. The important role of intermediate molecular sulfur has been reported [68-72]. Zinc (or other metal) forms a precipitate composed of ZnO and ZnS04. The decomposition of ROOH by dialkyl thiophosphates is an autocata-lytic process. The interaction of ROOH with zinc dialkyl thiophosphate gives rise to free radicals, due to which this reaction accelerates oxidation of hydrocarbons, excites CL during oxidation of ethylbenzene, and intensifies the consumption of acceptors, e.g., stable nitroxyl radicals [68], The induction period is often absent because of the rapid formation of intermediates, and the kinetics of decomposition is described by a simple bimolecular kinetic equation... 

HIV displays extensive genetic variation even within a single individual. Such genetic variation is particularly prominent in the viral env gene whose product, gp 160, is subsequently proteo-lytically processed to yield gp 120 and gp 41. 

Sulfur isotopes also show mass-independent effects that are probably produced by the same photochemical mechanism as oxygen effects in the Earth s upper atmosphere. Mass independent variations in sulfur from Martian meteorites have been interpreted to result from volcanic injections of SO2 and H2S into the Martian atmosphere followed by photolysis, which fractionates the sulfur isotopes. There is also evidence from ancient terrestrial sediments that the same photo lytic process was operating on sulfur in the Earth s atmosphere prior to 2.4 Ga, before oxygen began to accumulate in the atmosphere (see review by Thiemens, 2006). 

In the crystalline state, radiolysis is the most suitable, free-radical generator. However, the specificity in producing a certain radical species is usually less here than in aqueous solutions, as the radiation energy is absorbed by the carbohydrate itself. Specific reactions, sometimes of preparative interest, occur only if chain reactions are induced within the crystalline material by the radicals generated in the radio-lytic processes. 

These trapping experiments have been illustrated with reactions involving heterolytic bonding changes and polar intermediates. The kinetic treatments are general, and applications to homo lytic processes and radical traps are discussed in Chapter 10.

Facing difficulties with chemical methods, development work was aimed at finding a biocata-lytic process to resolve the amino acids. Typical commercial enzymes reported for resolution of amino acids were tested. Whole-cell systems containing hydantoinase were found to produce only a-monosubstituted amino acids 106 112 the acylase catalyzed resolution of Af-acyl amino acids had extremely low rates (often zero) of catalysis toward a-dialkylated amino acids 113114 and the nitrilase system obtained from Novo Nordisk showed no activity toward the corresponding 2-amino-2-... 

The photolysis of bis(organosilyl)imines 30 in CCI4 afforded the corresponding silyl chlorides and isocyanides as the products (equation 8). Evidence that the reaction proceeds via a homo lytic process involving silyl radicals is provided25. 

Results of recent study, however, have been interpreted in terms of a homo-lytic process. Schechter and Conrad [49] have observed that the production of methyl-3-nitroacrylate and methyl-2-hydroxy-3-nitropropionate in the reaction between N204 and methyl acrylate could not be explained on the basis of heterolytic addition, but was to be expected if a homolytic process were occurring. Brown [80] has shown that olefin nitration under circumstances in which the nitronium ion (N02+) is the reactant has characteristics entirely different from those of the N204-olefin reaction. Brand and I. D. R. Stevens [81] also believed the reaction of addition of nitrogen dioxide to olefins to involve radicals. According to these authors the following experimental facts provide evidence for this ...

The preceding examples demonstrate the possibihty of the deduction of microkinetic expressions for the stationary rates of various stepwise cata lytic processes followed by thermodynamic analysis of the obtained expres sions. It is obvious, however, that the analysis is only meaningful when the said stationary states are stable in respect to the concentrations of the cata lytic intermediates. 

Demethylation of N,N-dimethylanilines is a reaction known to involve the intermediate formation of a radical cation, as has been demonstrated by anodic and chemical oxidation. Monodemethylation of N,N-dimethylaniline (without a substituent in the 4-position) has been observed by Penton and Zollinger but only in dry acetonitrile and in strict absence of bases (moisture ). In the opinion of the present authors Colonna s experiments with 1 -methyl-3-methylthio-2-phenylindole 139, X=SCHj) provide a better evidence for radical intermediates than the demethylation of N,N-dimethyl-4-acetylaniline, since that demethylation may also be a hetero-lytic process.
