| 1. | This was indicated by the isotope effect observed in superconductors.
|
| 2. | This mechanistic hypothesis is supported by kinetic isotope effect experiments.
|
| 3. | Owing to experimental uncertainties, measurement of isotope effect may entail significant uncertainty.
|
| 4. | Often isotope effects are determined through complementary studies on a series of isotopomers.
|
| 5. | Multiple transformation pathways were revealed for atrazine by measuring isotope effects of multiple elements.
|
| 6. | In many such reactions, leaving group isotope effects tend to be easier to interpret.
|
| 7. | Interpretation of carbon isotope effects are usually complicated by simultaneously forming and breaking bonds to carbon.
|
| 8. | Kinetic isotope effects are common in biological systems and are especially important for hydrogen isotope biogeochemistry.
|
| 9. | There may thus be a small isotope effect even if the first step is rate-determining.
|
| 10. | Accordingly, it is quite useful to combine hydrogen isotope effects with heavy-atom isotope effects.
