β¦ Synopsis
Kinetic equations for the decomposition of S-hydroxymethyl cellulose xanthate in the presence of acid and formaldehyde are derived. The assumed mechanism involves an equilibrium between the 8-hydroxymethyl cellulose xanthate and cellulose xanthic acid and xanthate ion. Decomposition appears to proceed via interaction between the cellulose xanthate ion and hydrogen ion which form an activated complex that subsequently decomposes to cellulose and carbon disulfide. The equations derived show the proper dependence on acid and formaldehyde concentrations. An estimate of the equilibrium constant between cellulose xanthate and S-hydroxymethyl cellulose xanthate is calculated from the rate constants.

The kinetics and mechanism of the reaction between nitrous acid and bromine are studied in dilute sulfuric acid medium, using both the stopped-flow method and conventional spectrophotometry. The partial reaction order with respect to Br 2 moderately differs from 1, showing a saturation at a higher c
Dry carbonic acid has recently been shown to be kinetically stable even at room temperature. Addition of water molecules reduces this stability significantly, and the decomposition (H2CO3 + nH2O --> (n+1)H2O + CO2) is extremely accelerated for n = 1, 2, 3. By including two water molecules, a reactio
Spectrophotometric measurements were made on the extent of binding of formaldehyde to polyuridylic acid under conditions of varying temperature and formaldehyde concentration. The data is interpreted in terms of a temperature-dependent stacking of the bases in poly U at 20Β°, but not at 40Β°C. A theor
