Under the kinetic conditions, HCrO4- has been found kinetically active in the absence of PA while in the ΡΑ-catalysed path Cr(VI)-PA complex has been established as the active oxidant. In the ΡΑ-catalysed path, Cr(VI)-PA complex receives a nucleophilic attack by the substrate to form a ternary complex which subsequently experiences a redox decomposition (through 2e transfer) leading to lactone (oxidised product) and Cr(IV)-PA complex. Then Cr(IV)-PA complex participates further in the oxidation of D-glucose and ultimately is converted into Cr(III)-PA complex. In the uncatalysed path, Cr(VI)-substrate ester experiences an acid catalysed redox decomposition (2e transfer) at the rate determining step. The uncatalysed path shows a second-order dependence on [H+], Both the paths show first-order dependence on [D-glucose]T and [Cr(VI)]T. The ΡΑ-catalysed path is first-order in [PA]T. These observations remain unaltered in the presence of externally added surfactants. Effect of cationic surfactant (i.e. cetylpyridinium chloride, CPC) and anionic surfactant (i.e. sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) on both the uncatalysed and ΡΑ-catalysed path has been studied. CPC inhibits both the uncatalysed and ΡΑ-catalysed path while SDS catalyses the reactions. The observed micellar effects have been explained by considering the hydrophobic and electrostatic interaction between the surfactants and reactants. Applicability of different kinetic models, e.g. pseudo-phase ion exchange (PIE) model, Menger-Portnoy model, Piszkiewicz cooperative model, has been tested to explain the observed micellar effects. Effect of [surfactant]T on the activation parameters has been explored to rationalise the micellar effect.","PeriodicalId":8996,"journal":{"name":"BioInorganic Reaction Mechanisms","volume":"17 1","pages":"63 - 74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85099116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reactions of Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) with 4'-(l-naphthyl)terpy were also investigated by stopped-flow fluorimetry. Using excess ligand, a single pseudo-first-order rate process is observed for reactions with either Co(II), Ni(II) or Zn(II) that corresponds to the rate of formation of the mono(ligand)metal(II) ion, followed by rapid conversion of the monoto the bis-(terpy)metal(II) complexes. However, using excess Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II), intermediates are observed prior to the formation of the mono(terpy)metal(II) species, in a two-step consecutive first-order process. The results are consistent with the formation of an intermediate mono(ligand)metal(II) complex in which the terpy acts as a bidentate 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) donor, followed by a measurable final chelate-ring-closure step. For the intermediates involved in the reactions of Z n 2 + with terpy and 4'-phenylterpy, at 25 °C the kinetically determined equilibrium constants, estimated from the ratios of slopes/intercepts of plots of kobs versus [Zn 2 + ] , are logifCj/dm 3 ι η ο Γ 1 ) = 5.14 ± 0.08 and 4.80 ± 0.12 respectively. These values of K-[ are too small for the formation of mono(terpy)zinc(II) complexes, but are as expected for the formation of a mono(ligand)zinc(II) complex in which the terpy acts as a bidentate (bipy) donor. The kinetics of the reaction of [Cu(OH2)g] with excess terpy in water buffered at pH 6.1 are more complex, with several kinetic steps observed.

Subsequent reactions are attributed to the rapid formation and slow rearrangement of a five-coordinate bis(terpy)copper(II) intermediates, with one terpy acting as a terdentate donor and the other terpy as a bidentate ligand.

The absorbance measurements of the intermediate at various [HN3] yield an equilibrium constant Κ = 0.012 ± 0.001 at 35° C which compares well with the value 0.011 obtained at that temperature from the kinetics data. The reaction is first-order with respect to [ComIIIW]5- and HN3. The pH dependence of kobs, the pseudo-first-order rate constant ([HN3] > [CoIIlW]5-), is consistent with the linearity of the plots between kobs-1 and [H+] with intercepts on the rate ordinate. The inverse correlation between kobs and [H+] is traced to the equilibrium HN3 ⇄ N-3 + H+ followed by [CoIIIW]5 + N3 ⇄ [CoIIIW... N3]6 andnot through the equilibria [CoIIlW]5 + HN3 ⇄ [ColIIW ...N3]6- + H+. The high reactivity of the N-3 ion is traced to the presence of an unshared pair of electrons as in the case of NH2OH and N2H4 which seems to imply an inner-sphere mechanism with the substrate binding to the oxidant via this pair of electrons. However, in view of the well-protected nature of the central CoIII atom in [ColIIW]5- ion there is difficulty in visualising the coordination of the substrate with the Co1\" ion.
