Abstract
AbstractHydrolyses of p‐nitrophenyl acetate (PNPA) and 3‐acetoxy‐N,N,N‐trimethylanilinium iodide (ANTI) catalyzed by poly[p‐vinyl(thiophenol)‐co‐acrylic acid] (PSH) were studied in the pH range of 8 – 9,5. The reaction of PNPA followed pseudo‐first‐order kinetics and was found to be catalyzed by the thiophenolate ions on the polymer backbone. In the case of positively charged ANTI, the rate of catalysis showed substrate saturation phenomena and could be described by a Michaelis‐Menten kinetics. This indicates that this reaction proceeds via a complex formed by electrostatic interaction between the substrate and the negatively charged polymer catalyst. When ionic strength was increased to 0,12 mol/l the reaction did not further follow the Michaelis‐Menten kinetics, suggesting that the complexation constant or the reaction rate of the complex might vary with the amount of the substrate incorporated in the polymer domain. Positively charged N,N,N‐trimethylanilinium iodide competively inhibited the PSH‐catalyzed hydrolysis of ANTI.
