[reaction: see text]. Yttrium-salen complexes effect transacylation between enolesters and chiral secondary alcohols, resulting in varying degrees of kinetic resolution. Even though the enantioselectivity remains modest (k(fast)/k(slow) up to 4.81), these results represent the first demonstration of a conceptually new metal-catalyzed acyl transfer process that results in kinetic resolution. On ...

For enzymatic analysis to quantify a substrate or enzyme, kinetic analysis of reaction curve can be integrated with a proper classical approach. For their integration, they should have consistent slopes and intercepts of linear response and an overlapped region of analyte quantities measurable under optimized conditions. To quantify a substrate after optimizations of tool enzyme activity and re...

The kinetics of the transesterification of phosphatidylcholine (PC) with α-linolenic acid ethyl ester (ALAEE) catalyzed by immobilized lipase in hexane was studied. The reaction proceeded via a Ping-Ping Bi-Bi mechanism without inhibition by both the substrates at various concentrations tested. A reaction kinetic model was proposed with the experimental data. The kinetic constants of the model ...

A kinetic study of the transformation of HGdP2O7.1.5H2O into HGdP2O7.0.5H2O has been achieved by means of isothermal thermogravimetry experiments under controlled water vapour pressure. This pressure was found to have an accelerating effect upon the rate of reaction. The kinetic curves giving the extent of reaction versus time can be described using a Mampel's model. Via this modeling, values o...

The kinetic analysis of complex solid-state reactions that involve simultaneous overlapping processes is challenging. A method that involves the deconvolution of the individual processes from the overall differential kinetic curves obtained under linear heating rate conditions, followed by the kinetic analysis of the discrete processes using combined kinetic analysis, is proposed. Different con...

In this research work the reaction kinetics of the molybdate-catalyzed epimerization of glucose in aqueous solutions has been mathematical modeled and investigated. Experiments were performed in a microstructured reactor in continuous flow regime. The results show high yield of mannose in the range between 21-27.1%, which exceeds the actual literature data with a ratio 3:1. The kinetic model is...
