Sonication effects on non-radical reactions. A sonochemistry beyond the cavitation? ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2014; 21:997-1001. [PMID: 24279982 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2013.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2013] [Revised: 10/22/2013] [Accepted: 11/04/2013] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
The kinetics of pH-independent hydrolysis of 4-methoxyphenyl dichloroacetate were investigated under ultrasonic irradiation with an application of 10% of the maximum power of the equipment and without sonication in acetonitrile-water binary mixtures with a content of acetonitrile ranging from 0.008 to 35 wt.%. Similar kinetic investigations were performed at intensities corresponding to 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% of the input energy in solvent mixtures containing 10 wt.% and 25 wt.% acetonitrile. In parallel, the responses of KI and terephthalic acid dosimeters at applied irradiation levels were registered under the same experimental conditions. Significant kinetic sonication effects were found at sound intensities presumably not inducing cavitation in the solution. This result provides an experimental evidence of kinetic effects of ultrasound in the absence of cavitation. A disturbing impact of cavitation on the ultrasonic acceleration of the reaction was found. The implications of these findings were discussed.

Kinetic sonication effects in aqueous acetonitrile solutions. Reaction rate levelling by ultrasound. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2013; 20:1414-1418.

Abstract
The kinetics of the pH-independent hydrolysis of 4-methoxyphenyl dichloroacetate were investigated with and without ultrasonic irradiation in acetonitrile-water binary mixtures containing 0.008 to 35 wt.% of acetonitrile and the kinetic sonication effects (kson/knon) were calculated. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the structure of the solutions were performed with ethyl acetate as the model ester. The ester is preferentially solvated by acetonitrile. The excess of acetonitrile over water in the solvation shell grows fast with an increase in the co-solvent content in the bulk solution. In parallel, the formation of a second solvation shell rich in acetonitrile takes place. Significant kinetic sonication effects for the hydrolysis were explained with facile destruction of the diffuse second solvation shell followed by a rearrangement of the remaining solvent layer under sonication. The rate levelling effect of ultrasound was discussed. In an aqueous-organic binary solvent, independent of the solvent composition, the ultrasonic irradiation evokes changes in the reaction medium which result in an almost identical solvation state of the reagent thus leading to the reaction rate levelling.

Kinetic sonication effects in light of molecular dynamics simulation of the reaction medium. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2013; 20:703-707.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the structure of ethyl acetate solutions in two water-ethanol mixtures was performed at 280 and 330K. The MD simulations revealed that ethyl acetate was preferentially solvated by ethanol, water being mainly located in the next solvation layer. With increasing temperature ethanol was gradually replaced by water in the first solvation shell. These findings explain the decrease in the rate of ester hydrolysis with increasing molar ratio of ethanol in the solution as the reaction rate was linearly dependent on the relative ethanol content in the first solvation shell of the ester. Predominance of ethanol results in decreased polarity and water activity in the shell and accordingly in a decreased reaction rate. Based on the results of the MD simulations, the principal conclusion of this work is that ultrasound enhances the kinetic energy (the effective temperature) of species in the solution and, in this way, evokes shifts in the solvation equilibria thus affecting the reaction rate. It appears that ultrasound does not completely break down the solvent shells or clusters in the solution as previously believed. Phenomena of thermo-solvatochromism and reaction rate levelling by ultrasound in binary solvents are described.

Impact of ultrasound on hydrophobic interactions in solutions: ultrasonic retardation of benzoin condensation. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2007; 14:445-9.

Abstract
Kinetics of the benzoin condensation of benzaldehyde in presence of KCN as the catalyst in water and in ethanol-water binary solutions were investigated without sonication and under ultrasound at 22 kHz. A statistically significant 20% decrease of the rate was observed in water. The retardation effect of ultrasound gradually decreases up to 45 wt% ethanol content. We report an evidence of ultrasonic retardation of reactions and thereby a direct evidence for sonochemical processes in the bulk solution. Ultrasound can disturb solvation of the species in the solution. If breaking down the stabilization of the encounter complexes between the reagents, sonication hinders the reaction while perturbation of the solvent-stabilization of the reagents accelerates the reaction.

Abstract
The kinetics of KCN-catalyzed benzoin condensation of benzaldehyde in water and ethanol-water binary mixtures was investigated both under ultrasound at 22 kHz and without sonication. Thermodynamic activation parameters were calculated from kinetic data obtained at 35, 50, and 65 degrees C. Evidence that ultrasound can retard reactions is reported and hence a direct proof that sonochemical processes occur in the bulk solution. Former results and literature data for ester hydrolyses and tert-butyl chloride solvolysis are involved in the discussion. A quantitative relationship between sonication effects and the hydrophobicity of reagents is presented for the first time. Ultrasound affects hydrophobic interactions with the solvent, which are not manifested in conventional kinetics. When it suppresses the stabilization of the encounter complexes between reagents, sonication hinders the reaction but accelerates it when it perturbs the hydrophobic stabilization of the ground state of a reagent.

Effect of Ultrasound on the Base-Catalyzed Hydrolysis of 4-Nitrophenyl Acetate in Aqueous Ethanol. J Phys Chem B 2006; 110:5817-21.

Abstract
The kinetics of base-catalyzed hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate was studied in water and water-ethanol mixtures under ultrasound (21.1 kHz) using a probe equipped with a quartz horn and, by comparison, without sonication. The ethanol concentration was varied from 0 to 50 wt % and pH from 7.5 to 9. The increase of reaction rate was inversely proportional to the strength of substrate interactions with the solvent structure. It was found that the effect of ultrasound could be related to the perturbation of solute-solvent interactions. This conclusion seems to apply to both acid-catalyzed and base-catalyzed hydrolysis reactions. Parallel experiments with a titanium horn revealed the catalytic action of undetermined chemical species formed from dispersed titanium metal.

Abstract
Kinetics of the reactions of phenylmagnesium chloride and bromide and diphenylmagnesium with chlorosilanes were investigated in tetrahydrofurane (THF) and in THF-hydrocarbon mixtures. The reaction in THF is much faster than that in diethyl ether. Assuming coordination of magnesium halides with three molecules of THF, concentrations of all the species involved in Schlenk equilibrium were calculated. In the Grignard reaction, species R(2)Mg and RMgX react competitively accompanied by additional reaction paths involving electrophilic catalysis by magnesium halide. This conclusion also proved to be valid for the Grignard reaction with a ketone and probably can be expanded to any Grignard reaction. When Schlenk equilibrium is shifted far to the RMgX species, the catalytic pathways are insignificant. Substituents at the silicon center control the rate of the reaction through their inductive and steric effects.

Abstract
Kinetics of the reactions of butylmagnesium chloride and phenylmagnesium bromide with tetraethoxysilane and methyltrichlorosilane was investigated in diethyl ether and diethyl ether-toluene mixtures. Replacement of ether by toluene significantly accelerates the reaction with alkoxysilanes, while no effect was found for the reaction with chlorosilanes. We established that the reaction with alkoxysilanes consists of replacement of a donor molecule at the magnesium center by the silane followed by subsequent rearrangement of the complex to products through a four-center transition state. Chlorosilanes react differently without solvent molecule replacement but also via a four-center transition state. Large negative activation entropies are consistent with formation of cyclic transition states. Small activation enthalpy values together with remarkable exothermicity point to early transition states of the reactions.

Abstract
Kinetics of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of ethyl acetate in ethanol-water binary solutions were investigated without sonication and under ultrasound at 22 kHz. Rate enhancements by 1.03-2.4 times were found with a minimum at 18 wt.% and a maximum at 45 wt.% of ethanol. The results suggest that ultrasonic acceleration of the reaction may be interrelated to the perturbation of the molecular structure of the binary solvent.

Abstract
Kinetics of acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of ethyl acetate in 1M HCl solution was investigated without sonication and under ultrasound at 22 kHz. An average 6.2-fold ultrasonic rate enhancement for the temperature range of 10-28 degrees C was found. This is a considerably greater acceleration than previously reported for ester hydrolyses. It was suggested that a significant part of the sonochemical effect on polar reactions may be due to temperature gradients in the cavitating medium.

Abstract
The effect of ultrasound on the rates of homogeneous heterolytic reactions not switched to a free radical pathway can be explained by the perturbation of the molecular organization of or the solvation in the reacting system. A quantitative analysis of the sonochemical acceleration on the basis of the microreactor concept was carried out. It was found that (1) the Diels-Alder reaction cannot be accelerated by ultrasound except when SET or free radical processes are promoted, (2) the rectified diffusion during cavitation cannot be responsible for the acceleration of reactions, and (3) the sonochemical acceleration of polar homogeneous reactions takes place in the bulk reaction medium. This implies the presence of a 'sound-field' sonochemistry besides the 'hot-spot' sonochemistry. The occurrence of a sonochemical deceleration effect can be predicted.
