Joseph J. Kuchta, Matthew Kessinger, Stefanie R. Allen, Gerald J. Meyer

The Good's buffers HEPES, TAPSO, and Tris are shown to increase proton transfer (PT) kinetics in a broadly important and benchmark model reaction: the protonation of a metal hydroxo to yield the aquo complex, Ru II -OH + H + → Ru II -OH 2 .
