Oscillating Reactions

Chemical clocks: oscillating reactions in chemistry and biochemistry.

 

Oscillating reactions are chemical processes in which the reaction rate has periodic fluctuations, which may manifest itself, for example, by color changes of the reaction mixture. These reactions have, for example, biochemical significance as biological clocks (circadian clocks) and in certain electrochemical processes.

For the occurrence of an oscillating reaction several conditions must be met, simplified: The oscillating system must be open to an exchange of energy and materials from the surroundings, several (at least two) can take steady states, with between states no thermodynamic equilibrium must have set. The system may oscillate, when a reaction step involves a feedback, such as by autocatalysis.

Below you will find online available information resources on oscillating chemical reactions.
