Your problem is how you are trying to notate the object "keys". This isn't valid for key construction in JavaScript object as the key names are literal and all characters are considered part of the name string.

Notate like this instead:

var update = { "rate": minRate };
update["classifierCategories."+e+".rate"] = temiz[i].slice(0,2);

That allows you to dynamically assign the key name like you want.
