The equilibrium is more favorable to acetone at higher temperatures. At 325°C 97% conversion is theoretically possible. The kinetics of the reaction has been studied (23). A large number of catalysts have been investigated, including copper, silver, platinum, and palladium metals, as well as sulfides of transition metals of groups 4, 5, and 6 of the periodic table. These catalysts are made with inert supports and are used at 400—600°C (24). Lower temperature reactions (315—482°C) have been successhiUy conducted using 2inc oxide-zirconium oxide combinations (25), and combinations of copper-chromium oxide and of copper and silicon dioxide (26). 

The oxidation kinetics of both gold and palladium alloys as a function of temperature and pressure have been reported by Opara et al and the behaviour of palladium and palladium oxide when heated in gaseous hydrochloride acid at 20-1000° by Ivashentsev and Ryumin . 

The key step in a short and efficient synthesis of pleraplysillin-1 (127) is the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of vinylstannane 125 with vinyl triflate 126 (see Scheme 33). This synthesis is noteworthy in two respects. First, vinyl triflate 126 is generated regio-specifically from the kinetic enolate arising from a conjugate reduction of enone 124 the conjugate reduction of an enone is, in fact, a... 

The exocyclic C — C double bond in the chlorin can be reduced by catalytic hydrogenation in tetrahydrofuran/water in the presence of palladium(II) acetate with triethoxysilane as hydrogen source to yield under kinetic control cw-stereoisomers, which can be transformed by treatment with /)-toluenesulfonic acid in methanol to the thermodynamically favored trans-isomers.27d... 

Pt(PPh3) (n = 3, 4) species [54] have been studied with profit for many years they undergo a wide range of addition reactions with attendant loss of phosphine, the kinetically active species probably being Pt(PPh3)2. (The palladium analogues generally behave similarly but are much less studied.)... 

The kinetics of hydrogenation of phenol has already been studied in the liquid phase on Raney nickel (18). Cyclohexanone was proved to be the reaction intermediate, and the kinetics of single reactions were determined, however, by a somewhat simplified method. The description of the kinetics of the hydrogenation of phenol in gaseous phase on a supported palladium catalyst (62) was obtained by simultaneously solving a set of rate equations for the complicated reaction schemes containing six to seven constants. The same catalyst was used for a kinetic study also in the liquid phase (62a). 

The kinetics of CO oxidation over platinum and palladium has been investigated by numerous scientists, beginning with the pioneer work of Irving Langmuir in 1922 (81). Langmuir studied platinum wires at 230 to 450°C, where the oxygen and CO pressures were at 0.05 Torr. He found that the kinetics can be represented by an expression... 

When studying the kinetics of diffusion of hydrogen through palladium, Farkas (28) noticed the difference in catalytic activity of both sides of the palladium disks or tubes for the parahydrogen conversion the energy of activation was greater on the inlet side than on the outlet side, where due to extensive desorption of the hydrogen its concentration could be lower. 

Moreover, in the case of hydride intervention, still a further factor, namely the kinetics of hydrogen diffusion into the metal, influences also the overall kinetics by removing a reactant from a reaction zone. In order to compare the velocity of reaction of hydrogen, catalyzed by palladium, with the velocity of the same reaction proceeding on the palladium hydride catalyst, it might be necessary to conduct the kinetic investigations under conditions when no hydride formation is possible and also when a specially prepared hydride is present in the system from the very beginning. 

Scholten and Konvalinka (9) in 1966 published the results of their studies on the kinetics and the mechanism of (a) the conversion of para-hydrogen and ortho-deuterium and (b) hydrogen-deuterium equilibration. At first the a-phase of the Pd-H system was used as catalyst, and then the results were compared with those obtained when the palladium had previously been transformed into its /3-hydride phase. 

Table III lists the kinetic equations for the reactions studied by Scholten and Konvalinka when the hydride was the catalyst involved. Uncracked samples of the hydride exhibit far greater activation energy than does the a-phase, i.e. 12.5 kcal/mole, in good accord with 11 kcal/mole obtained by Couper and Eley for a wire preexposed to the atomic hydrogen. The exponent of the power at p amounts to 0.64 no matter which one of the reactions was studied and under what conditions of p and T the kinetic experiments were carried out. According to Scholten and Konvalinka this is a unique quantitative factor common to the reactions studied on palladium hydride as catalyst. It constitutes a point of departure for the authors proposal for the mechanism of the para-hydrogen conversion reaction catalyzed by the hydride phase.

The formation and presence of both phases of the Pd-H system in the palladium catalyst samples investigated was confirmed by Brill and Watson by the values of the magnetic susceptibility of the samples investigated under the same conditions as in the kinetic studies. 

The catalytic system studied by Rennard and Kokes was in fact very complex. It can be expected that the satisfactory prolongation of the reaction should, however, result in a deviation from the formulated kinetics. Unfortunately no investigation comparable to that of Scholten and Kon-valinka has been done in the case of olefin hydrogenation. Such a study of the catalytic activity of the pure /3-phase of palladium hydride in comparison with the a- or (a + /3)-phases would supplement our knowledge concerning catalytic hydrogenation on palladium.

The transition-metal catalyzed decomposition of thiirene dioxides has been also investigated primarily via kinetic studies103. Zerovalent platinum and palladium complexes and monovalent iridium and rhodium complexes were found to affect this process, whereas divalent platinum and palladium had no effect. The kinetic data suggested the mechanism in equation 7.
