Factors Affecting the Relative Efficiency of General Acid Catalysis
Kwan, Eugene E.
Journal of Chemical Education, v82 n7 p1026-1030 Jul 2005
A simple framework for evaluating experimental kinetic data to provide support for Specific Acid Catalysis (SAC) and General Acid Catalysis (GAC) is described based on the factors affecting their relative efficiency. Observations reveal that increasing the SAC-to-GAC rate constant ratio reduces the effective pH range for GAC.
