Notizen:
The measurements were made for the volume and the sound velocity changes (ΔV and ΔU) on titrating the sodium salt of poly (S-carboxymethyl L-cysteine) with dilute HCl. For the reaction, —COO- + H+ → —COOH, ΔV per mole of H+ bound was + 12. 7 ml and +11. 4 ml in salt-free and 0. 2 M NaCl solutions, respectively. Corresponding ΔU was about -13 cm/sec in salt-free polymer solution where 11.5 mM carboxylate ion reacts with equimolar hydrogen ion. ΔV associated with the coil-to-β transition was found to be +2. 35 ml in H2O and +1. 90 ml in 0. 2 M NaCl per mole of amino acid residue, respectively. These values are larger than those obtained for the coil-to-helix transition of poly (L-glutamic acid). ΔU for the transition was about -30 cm/sec in salt-free solution of polymer concentration 0.0115 mole/liter. Possible sources of ΔV and ΔU for reaction; coil → β, are (1) the formation of void volume and (2) the changes in the extent of solvation in amide linkage and in side chain.
