We have shown that the most and least reactive complexes of the series are [RuII(terpy)(en)Cl]Cl (en = ethylenediamine) and [RuII(terpy)(phen)Cl]Cl (phen = 1, 10-phenantroline), respectively, as a result of different electronic effects provided by the bidentate spectator chelates. Polypyridyl amine Ru(II) complex, viz. [Ru(terpy)(en)Cl]Cl and [Ru(terpy)(ampy)Cl]Cl (where ampy = 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine), in which the terpy chelate labilizes the metal center, are able to catalyze the conversion of NAD+ to 1,4-NADH using sodium formate as a source of hydride. We showed that this complex can control the [NAD+]/[NADH] ratio and potentially induce reductive stress in living cells, which is accepted as an effective method to kill cancer cells. Polypyridyl Ru(II) complexes...

Viele anorganische Reaktionen konnten lange Zeit mit konventionellen kinetischen Untersuchungsmethoden nicht eindeutig mechanistisch zugeordnet werden; erst unter hohem Druck gelang es, ihre Mechanismen aufzuklaren.

The kinetic data confirm that the rate law reported for the pH range 3–6 at higher concentration levels, rate=kH·[H+]·[HSO−3]·[H2O2], is valid at the low concentration level and at low ionic strength Ic. At 298K and Ic=1.5×10−4M, third-order rate constant kH was found to be kH=(9.1±0.5)×107M−2s−1. The temperature dependence of kH led to an activation energy of Ea=29.7±0.9kJmol−1. The effect of the ionic strength (adjusted with NaCl) on rate constant kH was studied in the range Ic=2×10−4–5.0M at pH=4.5–5.2 by conductometry and stopped-flow spectrophotometry. The dependence of kH on Ic can be described with a semi-empirical relationship, which is useful for the purpose of comparison and extrapolation. The kinetic data obtained are critically compared with those reported earlier.

When Fe(III) was in excess, the observed rate constants depend on [Fe(III)]2 tot and on the reciprocal of [H+] and decrease with increasing pressure. ΔV ‡ values are around +8.0 cm3 mol–1.

The stoichiometry and stability constants of the formed complexes are reported, and the concentration distribution of the various complex species has been evaluated as a function of pH. The kinetics and mechanism of the complexformation reactions were studied as a function of nucleophile concentration, temperature and pressure. Two consecutive reaction steps, which both depend on the nucleophile concentration, were observed under all conditions. The negative entropies and volumes of activation support the operation of an associative complex-formation mechanism. The results are compared and discussed in reference to data reported for closely related systems in the literature.
