## Abstract

Co-existence of phase segregation and \\emph{interconversion} or \\emph{isomerization} reaction among molecular species leads to fascinating structure formation in biological and chemical world. Using Monte Carlo simulations of the prototype Ising model, we explore the chemical kinetics of such a system consisting of a binary mixture of \\emph{isomers}. Our results reveal that even though the two concerned processes are individually Arrhenius in nature, the Arrhenius behavior of the \\emph{isomerization} reaction gets significantly disrupted due to an interplay of the nonconserved dynamics of the reaction and the conserved diffusive dynamics of phase segregation. The approach used here can be potentially adapted to understand reaction kinetics of more complex reactions.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
