Abstract
Kinetic theories were developed for the reactions on a polymer chain carrying both substrates and catalytic groups randomly. The reaction courses were formulated (1) considering the distribution of the substrates or the catalytic groups along the chain to be time-averaged or (2) considering the distribution explicitly, introducing the probability of finding a catalytic group on each residue, which is determined independently from other residues or (3) introducing the probability that depends upon the states of the neighboring residues. These theories were successfully applied to the experimental work reported by Morawetz, et al., and subsequently discussed.
