Abstract
IT is now well established that interionic reactions can be extensively enhanced1,2 or retarded3,4 by addition of polyelectrolytes, but whether the forward or reverse reaction is affected by polyelectrolytes is unknown. Here we report a kinetic investigation of an addition reaction of CN− to a nicotinamide derivative — N-2′-(9-ethyladeninyl)-3-carbamoyl pyridinium chloride (NAA) (I), synthesized in this laboratory5 in the presence and absence of polyelectrolyte. A similar reaction of nicotinamides quaternized with alkyl groups was also thoroughly investigated6,7.
