Effect of water on the kinetics of NiII-pyridine 2-azodimethylaniline complex formation in acetonitrile
Abstract
The influence of added water on the kinetics of formation of the mono-nickel(II) pyridine 2-azodimethyl-aniline complex in acetonitrile is reported; complex changes in the activation parameters suggest that the solvent can induce a change of reaction mechanism.
