REACT for Windows: Chemical Kinetics Emulation and Application (Manka, Michael)
Abstract
REACT for Windows is a numerical integrator for variable-sized, simple or complex chemical kinetic systems and graphics for easy display of reactant-product species profiles. The program illustrates the ease with which complex kinetic systems with many elementary reactions can be evaluated, or how parameters (initial concentrations, added reactions, etc.). can be changed for evaluation of sensitivity or optimization.

The Finkelstein Reaction: Quantitative Reaction Kinetics of an SN2 Reaction Using Nonaqueous Conductivity
R. David Pace and Yagya RegmiJournal of Chemical Education2006 83 (9), 1344The Finkelstein Reaction: Quantitative Reaction Kinetics of an SN2 Reaction Using Nonaqueous Conductivity
R. David Pace and Yagya RegmiJournal of Chemical Education2006 83 (9), 1344Two essential concepts for students to grasp in the undergraduate organic chemistry sequence are substitution chemistry and elimination chemistry (SN1/SN2 and E1/E2). However, students are often confounded by the seemingly endless series of structure–...

DeBoerThe Journal of Physical Chemistry A2004 108 (50), 10965-10972Collisions between oxygen atoms and ethene have been investigated by using infrared emission detection of the chemiluminescent product species. A prototypical alkene, ethene, nonetheless exhibits numerous reaction pathways in reactions with O atoms. ...

An Elementary Reaction Kinetic Model of the Gas-Phase Formation of Polychlorinated Dibenzofurans from Chlorinated Phenols
Lavrent Khachatryan, Ruben Asatryan, and Barry DellingerThe Journal of Physical Chemistry A2004 108 (44), 9567-9572An Elementary Reaction Kinetic Model of the Gas-Phase Formation of Polychlorinated Dibenzofurans from Chlorinated Phenols
Lavrent Khachatryan, Ruben Asatryan, and Barry DellingerThe Journal of Physical Chemistry A2004 108 (44), 9567-9572A 30-reaction core kinetic model has been developed that accounts for the major features in the homogeneous formation of polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF) from the high-temperature oxidation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP). The core, purely gas-phase ...
