Reversed hydrolysis, comparison

The Ic2 values (M s ) of the solvolysis of various RsSiOPh in aqueous ethanol at 25 °C were determined under acidic and basic conditions . The size of the silyl groups influences the rate and follows the order listed in entries 55 and 56 of Table 1. The correlation between the Si—O—C angle and the oxygen basicities may be completely different, or even reversed, in comparison with trimethylsilyl and rert-butyldimethylsilyl ethers. The relative hydrolysis rates may be simply controlled by steric hindrance to solvent assistance for the Si—O bond cleavage following the protonation step. 

Yang and Russell [7] made comparison of lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis in three different systems organic, biphasic, and reversed micelles. They affirmed that water content is an important factor that distinctly affects every system. Their results demonstrated that activity of lipase in organic-aqueous biphasic media was lower than that obtained in reversed micelles. However, better productivities were obtained in biphasic media, which were the most suitable environment. 

A comparison of the products of AP hydrolysis of HQDP (HQ), PP, and 1-NP using cyclic voltammetry revealed that HQ produced well-defined peaks, and that the oxidation of HQ is reversible. More importantly, no apparent passivation of the electrode surface was observed even at high millimolar concentrations after 50 scans. Following a series of investigations, this non-fouling nature of HQ was attributed to the non-accumulation of its oxidation products on the electrode surface and the good diffusional properties of HQ at the electrode-solution interface. Another positive feature of HQDP as a substrate for AP is a tenfold greater oxidation current response of HQ compared to those obtained in the presence of PP or 1-NP. Overall, HQDP provides a suitable and attractive alternative substrate system for AP in the development of amperometric immunosensors.

The most common adsorption systems consist of silica gel or alumina adsorbents in association with an organic solvent system. The adsorbent can exert a considerable influence on the separation of compounds. Alumina and silica gel, for example, have significantly different properties and can result in quite different separations. Activation of the adsorbent also influences sample retention. The presence of water on the adsorbent decreases the adsorbent activity due to blockage of active sites. If large quantities of water are present, a partition system may be set up which may extensively change the retention times due to the different chromatographic principle involved. Table 2.1 compares results obtained for the separation of the insecticide carbaryl (Sevin) and its hydrolysis product 1-naphthol on alumina and silica gel. Comparisons between activation and deactivation are made. The results show that separation of the two components is reversed with the two adsorbents examined. In most cases, activation of the plates caused the/ f values to increase relative... 

A good comparison of rapid reversible and slow-binding inhibition can be found in a recent study on the inhibition of arginase, an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-arginine to yield L-omithine and urea (Equation 17.31).

In order to clarify the absolute configuration of okaramines, we determined the absolute stereochemistry of the above-mentioned derivatives of cyclo (Trp-Trp) (20). Acid hydrolysis of 20 gave L-tryptophan, which was identified by comparison with standard D,L-tryptophan samples by chiral HPLC analysis. Thus, the absolute configuration at C-2 was proved to be S [21]. The absolute stereochemistries of 21, 22, 23, and 24 were defined by a CD comparison with cyclo (L-Trp-L-Trp) (20). Furthermore, acid hydrolysis of 23 afforded L-tryptophan through the loss of a reverse-prenyl side chain [26, 27]. Hydrolysis of 21, 22, and 24 also gave L-tryptophan. Accordingly, these results elucidated the absolute stereochemistries of 21, 22, 23, and 24 as those depicted [21].
