Kinetic synthesis

Chiral sulphoxides are the most important group of compounds among a vast number of various types of chiral organosulphur compounds. In the first period of the development of sulphur stereochemistry, optically active sulphoxides were mainly used as model compounds in stereochemical studies2 5 6. At present, chiral sulphoxides play an important role in asymmetric synthesis, especially in an asymmetric C—C bond formation257. Therefore, much effort has been devoted to elaboration of convenient methods for their synthesis. Until now, optically active sulphoxides have been obtained in the following ways optical resolution, asymmetric synthesis, kinetic resolution and stereospecific synthesis. These methods are briefly discussed below. 

Ammonia Synthesis Kinetics over Fe Crystal Surfaces. 

This study presents kinetic data obtained with a microreactor set-up both at atmospheric pressure and at high pressures up to 50 bar as a function of temperature and of the partial pressures from which power-law expressions and apparent activation energies are derived. An additional microreactor set-up equipped with a calibrated mass spectrometer was used for the isotopic exchange reaction (DER) N2 + N2 = 2 N2 and the transient kinetic experiments. The transient experiments comprised the temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of N2 and H2. Furthermore, the interaction of N2 with Ru surfaces was monitored by means of temperature-programmed adsorption (TPA) using a dilute mixture of N2 in He. The kinetic data set is intended to serve as basis for a detailed microkinetic analysis of NH3 synthesis kinetics [10] following the concepts by Dumesic et al. [11].

In addition to development of full laboratory courses, several individual experiments that can be included in such integrated laboratories have been developed recently. They include experiments on photocatalysis (148), synthesis, kinetics and thermodynamics of an inorganic compound (149), studies on conformational analysis (150), synthesis and variable temperature proton NMR of an inorganic compound (151), and the study of microemulsions (152). As such laboratories become more common, we can expect more of these experiments to appear in the literature. These integrated laboratory courses and experiments can be found in Table XL...

The section on crystallization comprises zeolite synthesis, kinetics and mechanism of formation, stability relationships, recrystallization processes as well as the genesis of natural zeolites. Recent advances in this field have been surveyed, and some new perspectives have been outlined in the review by E. M. Flanigen. Most of the studies in this field are still empirical because of the complexity of the systems involved. Considerable progress has been made, however, towards a better understanding of the processes and mechanisms governing zeolite crystallization. It is not unreasonable to expect that conditions for synthesizing new zeolite structure types can eventually be predicted.

The character of the chemisorption of nitrogen can be also judged from the results of studies of ammonia synthesis kinetics at the reversible poisoning of the catalyst with water vapor (102,103). If a gas mixture contains water vapor, an adsorption-chemical equilibrium of adsorbed oxygen, hydrogen gas, and water vapor sets in on the iron catalyst.

FT synthesis kinetics are similar on Co and Ru catalysts and reflect similar CO activation and chain growth pathways on these two metals. These kinetic expressions are consistent with the stepwise hydrogenation of surface carbon formed in fast CO dissociation steps (26). Chemisorbed CO and CH t species are the most abundant reactive intermediates, as expected from the high binding energy of CO and carbonaceous deposits on Co and Ru surfaces (7, 76-80). As a result, reaction orders in CO remain negative at the usual inlet pressures but can become positive as CO reactants are depleted by transport limitations within pellets or by high levels of conversion within the catalyst bed. 

Our selectivity and rate data for catalysts with large x values, as well as independent CO and H2 diffusivity and solubility measurements (22,112), suggest that CO, and not H2, becomes the diffusion-limited reactant for feeds with H2/CO > 1.6. These results disagree with a previous proposal (60) that H2 arrival rates control the rate of hydrocarbon synthesis on Co catalysts with kinetics and volumetric rates very similar to ours. The results obtained on Co and Ru catalysts are remarkably similar (Fig. 14a) because site-time yields (Figs. 2 and 3) and FT synthesis kinetics (Table I) are also similar on the two catalyst systems, and FT synthesis selectivity is controlled by transport limitations due to the catalyst structure and not by the details of the catalytic chemistry. 

The ability to couple ARO with the kinetic resolution of a racemic mixture of epoxides offers another powerful strategy in asymmetric synthesis. Kinetic resolution is an attractive approach when the epoxide is easily accessed in racemic form, and becomes even more valuable when effective enantioselective routes to these epoxides are lacking. The most appeaUng scenario is one where both the ring-opened product and the unreacted epoxide are valuable chiral products. 

The flocculant that is obtained as a product of aforementioned process contained a small amount of polymer that plays an integral role in the process of suspended particles precipitation. To find out if we can increase its content in the product we investigated how initial concentration of AN affects synthesis kinetics and flocculant s properties. We found out that increase of concentration of initial monomer results in increase of reaction s rate, polymer s content (P) and its molecular mass and in decrease of duration of process and improvement of flocculating properties (Figure 3).
