Abstract: The observed rate constant ratio,k1obs/k2 obs, for the sequential iodination of L-tyrosine was determined in the concentration range 1.84·10–3 to 1·10–6 M by the use of3H- and14C-labels and product analysis by HPLC. Iodinations by chloramine-T/I– gave (k1 obs/k2 obs)·beta values (beta=the pH dependent factor) in the range 72±3 to 55±2 and molecular iodine iodinations gave values in the range 64±5 to 39±10. It is concluded that molecular iodine is the iodinating species in both cases. |
