Reaction of LiPI and LiPII with DHP. (A) Reduction of LiPI by DHP. The plot of k1obs versus DHP concentration was a nonlinear least-squares fit on the data. (B) Reduction of LiPII by DHP. The plot of k2obs versus DHP concentration was a nonlinear least-squares fit on the data. Pseudo-first-order rate constants kobs were obtained as shown in Fig. 5 and in the text. Eqs. 6 and 9 were used for the curve fit. Each determination of kobs is the mean of at least five traces.
