Kinetic isotope effect studies of some carboxylic anhydrides useful as models for certain enzymatic processes.

Solvent and β-secondary kinetic isotope effects were used to study the hydrolysis mechanisms of some carboxylic anhydrides and a thiolester. The studies were carried out in order to obtain model system data useful in interpreting kinetic data obtained in studies of enzymes. Proton inventory studies...
