Kinetics of hydroperoxyde-dependent naphthalene hydroxylation involving cytochrome P-450 of the intact and induced enzyme systems of rat liver microsomes

Hydroperoxide-dependent naphthalene hydroxylation involving rat liver microsomes has been studied. The direct interaction between cytochrome p-450 and cumyl hydroperoxide (CHP) has been demonstrated. K_m values with respect to both the substrate and CHP have been determined using intact and induced enzyme systems. The nature of the hydroxylating agent and the possible role of high-valence iron in the processes of hydroxylation by microsomal systems is discussed.

Kinetic parameters of thermal decomposition of complex of β-cyclodextrin with water

The apparent kinetic parameters of the thermal decomposition of the-cyclodextrin-water complex were estimated from thermogravimetric data. Various calculation methods were used and the results compared. All methods except the Kissinger method gave a reaction order near to zero and an activation energy in the range 60 to 65 kJ/mol. Some trials were made to extrapolate the activation energy values to semi-isothermal conditions (65.7 kJ/mol). The loss in weight indicated the presence of 11 water molecules in the complex. This was liberated in single stage, despite its occurrence as two distinct types, as shown by crystallographic studies.

Zusammenfassung Auf Grundlage von thermogravimetrischen Daten wurden die scheinbaren kinetischen Parameter des Thermozerfalles von-Cyclodextrin-Wasser- Komplexen geschätzt. Die durch verschiedene Rechenmethoden erhaltenen Ergebnisse wurden in Tabelle 3 verglichen. Mit Ausnahme der Kissinger-Methode ergaben alle Verfahren eine Reaktionsordnung von annähernd Null und eine Aktivierungsenergie im Bereich 60–65 kJ/mol. Ausserdem wurde versucht, die Aktivierungsenergiewerte auf halbisotherme Bedingungen zu extrapolieren (65.7 kJ/mol). Der Masseverlust weist elf Wassermoleküle im Komplex nach, die in einem einzigen Schritt abgegeben werden, ungeachtet dessen, dass kristallographische Untersuchungen die Wassermoleküle zwei verschiedenen Typen zuordnen.

Catalytic cracking and dehydrogenation of butanes and neopentane on reduced copper-exchanged Y-zeolites

The activity and selectivity of reduced Cu–Y zeolites containing acidic sites either only of Brönsted or only of Lewis type suggest that the Lewis acid sites are active in the cracking of butanes and neopentane, while both Lewis acid and Lewis base sites are involved in the mechanism of the dehydrogenation of these reactants.

Coadsorption of ethylene and oxygen on an iridium surface

It is established that the hydrocarbon coverage (0<1) formed at T<400 K on the Ir surface is oxidized upon oxygen exposures to CO and H₂O by an adsorption mechanism. Complete oxidation to CO₂ and H₂O is achieved at T350 K after C₂H₄ exposures of the oxygen coverage.

A rapid method of determination of specific surface areas

An apparatus and a method for the rapid determination of specific surface areas are described. The method is based on low temperature adsorption of nitrogen from the air and requires determination of the adsorbed gas at two relative pressures. The accuracy of the method, as compared with the BET technique, is ±9% for the adsorbents studied.

Variations in the cooling transitions of potassium nitrate

Because of questions concerning the suitability of potassium nitrate as a dynamic temperature standard for DTA, the relation between the experimental procedure and the resulting curves was ascertained for the Standard Reference Material KNO₃. The material behaves differentlyon cooling in open pans than in cylindrical holders because confinement in the latter case initiates reversion to the room temperature form. Under the conditions of use as a dynamic temperature reference material, the curves are accurately reproducible.

Zusammenfassung Zur Überprüfung der Eignung von Kaliumnitrat als dynamische Temperatur-Eichsubstanz für die DTA, wurde der Zusammenhang des Versuchsvorganges und der erhaltenen Kurven für das Standard-Referenz-Material KNO₃ untersucht. Die Substanz verhält sich bei der Kühlung in offenen Tiegeln und in zylindrischen Behältern unterschiedlich, da in letzteren die Begrenztheit die Reversion zur Zimmertemperatur-Form in Gang setzt. Unter den für das dynamische Temperatur-Referenz-Material gegebenen Bedingungen sind die Kurven gut reproduzierbar.

Résumé En raison de l'emploi du nitrate de potassium comme étalon de température en ATD, on a étudié l'influence des conditions d'expérience sur les courbes obtenues. Le comportement de ce corps est différent si on effectue le refroidissement dans des capsules ouvertes ou dans des creusets cylindriques. Dans ce dernier cas, le manque d'espace initie le retour à la forme stable delà température ambiante. Dans les conditions d'emploi comme matériau de température étalon, les courbes sont exactement reproductibles.

Effect of ligands on the hydrogenation selectivity in the presence of rhenium catalysts

It has been established that the catalytic activity of rhenium oxohalide complexes with phosphorus- or sulfur-containing ligands in hydroganation of C₆–C₁₀ olefins, nitrobenzene and p-nitrotoluene is primarily determined by the original ligand to rhenium ion bond. Chain length of olefins does not affect their hydrogenation rate.

Estimation of kinetic parameters in oxidative dehydrogenation of n-butenes over SnO2?Sb2O4 catalysts

Kinetic curves measured in the oxidation of n-butenes over a SnSb=31 mixed oxide catalyst were fitted by the kinetic model put forward in a previous paper. The goodness of fitting shows that the kinetic behavior of this complex reaction system can be described by a mechanism involving acidic and redox sites on the catalyst surface.

Coke deposition on naphtha reforming catalysts: I. Influence of the hydrocarbon feed

During hydrocarbons reactions over Pt/Al₂O₃ the catalyst is covered by coke. It is accepted that coke formation occurs on metal and acid sites. During normal heptane and methylcyclopentane reforming it was found that the nature and the rate of coke deposited on the catalyst surface was not same, depending on the structure of the hydrocarbon feed.

Catalytic activity of CaO?CaF2 binary systems in the Claus reaction

Activity of CaO–CaF₂ catalysts in the Claus reaction has been studied as a function of catalyst composition and of the time of catalyst operation in the reaction. Opposite effects of low and high fluoride content on the Claus activity have been found. A new type of reducing centers is suggested to be responsible for the increase in the activity observed in the case of fluorine-rich catalysts.

Thermal activation of Al2O3 supported MoO3 and WO3 metathesis catalysts

Alumina-supported MoO₃ and WO₃ catalysts were activated for the metathesis of propene by thermal treatment in Ar. Temperatures up to 1140 K are required for catalysts with low metal contents. These exhibit the highest specific activities though they are known to be highly resistant to reduction. It is proposed that the active sites are formed from Mo(VI) and W(VI) species under the conditions employed.

Valence states and solubility limits in ternary iron-tin-antimony mixed oxide catalysts

The electrical conductivity study of a series of ternary Fe–Sn–Sb mixed oxides with 5 at. % Fe has shown that iron dissolves in the structure of SnO₂ as ferric ions and, consequently creates acceptor centers which compensate the doping effect of Sb⁵⁺ ions simultaneously dissolved, thus increasing the maximum dissolution of pentavalent antimony and shifting thereby the apparition limit of Sb³⁺ ions towards higher Sb contents.
