Rates of Some Complex Reactions and Simplification of Reaction Schemes: Steady-State and Pre-equilibrium Approximations. Advantages, Limitations, and Accuracy
摘要
The theoretical basis for the interpretation of rates of chemical reactions that was presented in Chap. 3 applies only to reactions in which a single compound is converted directly to one or more products by a unimolecular or bimolecular mechanism or to those reactions in which two compounds react together with a bimolecular mechanism to give directly products. In this chapter, we analyze some of the most representative complex reactions that take place through more than one elementary step.
