Application of Differential Kinetics to Analyze Mixtures of Diazonium Compounds Based on Their Rates of Decomposition.

Graphical interpolation method for the kinetic analysis of three-component mixtures

“…The method is most often seen applied to pseudo-first-order reactions (21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26), but Siggia and Hanna extended it to second-order processes (27)(28)(29). This is the method of choice when applicable because it requires no kinetic calibration measurements (a remarkable feature for any analytical technique) and is fairly free of interference from "mutual kinetic effects", that is, the result of one (or more) components in the mixture causing an alteration in the apparent rate constants of the other components.…”

“…It does require adherence to a simple rate equation, as ordinarily applied, though fractional order reactions have been treated (30). The graphical extrapolation method is mainly useful for analyzing two-component mixtures, although more components have been determined in unusual circumstances (8,25).…”

Analysis of multicomponent ester mixtures by dual temperature differential kinetics

“…Attempts at analyzing ternary mixtures have proved successful in kinetic studies on alkyl bromides (7), alcohols (8), diazonium compounds (9), and sugars (70), and on the determination of only one constituent among two or more socalled spectator species (2). In this latter study, contrary to the usual method of rate measurements over most of the entire reaction period, data collection is minimized by a proper choice of two reaction times equivalent to solution changes involving essentially the desired component.…”
