β¦ Synopsis
This article is concerned with the application of a new method to recover the rate constants in chemical reactions. The method is based on treating the unknown parameters as time dependent. With appropriate experimental data the unknown rate constants are guided from an arbitrary initial condition to their true value at a final time. An explicit equation describing the time evolution of the parameters is obtained by minimizing the error along the trajectory. The method leads to an iterative algorithm which is described in detail. Numerical results with the method indicate that accurate estimates of the rate constants can be obtained directly from experimental data.

## Abstract A hybrid experimental/computerβaided methodology for the design of solvents for reactions is presented. It is based on the use of a few reaction rate measurements to build a reaction model, followed by the formulation and solution of an optimal computerβaided molecular design problem (C
dicted rate constants are invariably dominated by a 'Reaction with N'). While AOP treats amides as amines, we expect amides to be less reactive than amines from the analogous relationship between esters and ethers (see [3] for OH rate constants): if amines are matched to ethers (both are highly reac
