Palladium(II) catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol by manganese(III) in aqueous sulfuric acid

The palladium(II) catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol by manganese(III) in acid medium is assumed to go via substrate-catalyst complex formation followed by the interaction of oxidant and complex in the rate-determining step. The rates exhibit fractional order in allyl alcohol and first order each in [Mn(III)] and [Pd(II)]. The reaction constants involved in the mechanism are determined.     

Kinetik der Oxidation von Diäthanolamin durch alkalisches Hexacyanoferrat(III)

The oxidation of diethanolamine by hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline medium has been found to be of first order with respect to diethanolamine, oxidant (at low concentrations) and hydroxyl ions; it tends to zero at higher concentrations of the oxidant. The effect of addition of sodium chloride, potassium sulphate and sodium acetate is positive, while that of hexacyanoferrate(II) ion is negligible. A mechanism involving the formation of an intermediate amine anion has been proposed.     

Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition in Guaiacol Solution, Catalyzed by Hexacyanoferrate(II)

The kinetics of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in a guaiacol solution, catalyzed by potassium hexacyanoferrate(II), were studied. The reaction mainly follows the pathway of guaiacol hydroxylation. The reaction order is 1 with respect to H₂O₂, 0.5 with respect to hexacyanoferrate, and from 0.4 to 0 with respect to guaiacol (the latter parameter decreases with increasing guaiacol concentration). The apparent activation energy is 105 kJ mol^{- 1}. A kinetic scheme of the process was proposed. An expression consistent with the experiment was obtained for the rate of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in the presence of guaiacol, catalyzed by hexacyanoferrate(II).     

Isomerization and Cleavage of Allyl Ethers of Carbohydrates by Trans- [Pd(NH3)2Cl2

Allyl ethers are widely used for the “temporary” protection of hydroxy groups in carbohydrates. The allyl group is conveniently removed by isomerization and subsequent cleavage of the labile prop-1-enyl group.² The rearrangement of allyl ethers to prop-1-enyl ethers is readily achieved by treatment with potassium t-butoxide in dimethyl sulfoxide, using tris(tripheny1phosphine)rhodium chloride, palladium on activated charcoal and by an ene reaction with diethylazodicarboxylate. acidic conditions, ozonolysis followed by alkaline hydrolysis, reaction with alkaline permanganate solution, or treatment with mercuric chloride in the presence of mercuric oxide. The isomerization of allyl ethers to prop-1-enyl ethers can also be carried out in the presence of palladium on carbon or complex bis(benzonitrile)palladium(11) chloride. Bruce and Roshan-Ali' showed that derivatives of allyl phenyl ether are smoothly cleaved by this complex. This has made it possible to remove the protecting group in a one-pot operation. We have now investigated the effect of palladium catalysts on the isomerization and cleavage of the allyl group in carbohydrate derivatives.

Hexacyanoferrate(III) as a mediator in the determination of total iron in potable waters as iron(II)-1,10-phenanthroline at a single-use screen-printed carbon sensor device

Hexacyanoferrate(III) was used as a mediator in the determination of total iron, as iron(II)-1,10-phenanthroline, at a screen-printed carbon sensor device. Pre-reduction of iron(III) at −0.2 V versus Ag/AgCl (1 M KCl) in the presence of hexacyanoferrate(II) and 1,10-phenanthroline (pH 3.5-4.5), to iron(II)-1,10-phenanthroline, was complete at the unmodified carbon electrode surface. Total iron was then determined voltammetrically by oxidation of the iron(II)-1,10-phenanthroline at +0.82 V, with a detection limit of 10 μg l⁻¹.In potable waters, iron is present in hydrolysed form, and it was found necessary to change the pH to 2.5-2.7 in order to reduce the iron(III) within 30 s. A voltammetric response was not found at lower pH values owing to the non-formation of the iron(II)-1,10-phenanthroline complex below pH 2.5.Attempts to incorporate all the relevant reagents (1,10-phenanthroline, potassium hexacyanoferrate(III), potassium hydrogen sulphate, sodium acetate, and potassium chloride) into a modifying coated PVA film were partially successful. The coated electrode behaved very satisfactorily with freshly-prepared iron(II) and iron(III) solutions but with hydrolysed iron, the iron(III) signal was only 85% that of iron(II).     

Sorption of palladium(II) on stannous ferrocyanide

A fine-crystalline stannous ferrocyanide (SCF) has been prepared by adding tin(II) chloride to potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) solution. The material was characterized by chemical analysis, thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction and infrared spectra. The solubility of SCF, kinetics and sorption mechanism of palladium in hydrochloric acid solutions were investigated. The palladium exchange capacity of 2.20 mM/g dry weight have been found.     

Catalytic effect of copper on the hexacyanoferrate(III)-cyanide redox reaction-I The uncatalysed and catalysed reactions

A kinetic study of the hexacyanoferrate(III)-cyanide redox reaction has been made in connection with development of a new catalytic method for copper. The reaction kinetics change with time from first- to second-order dependence with respect to hexacyanoferrate(III). The reaction is nearly inverse first-order with respect to hexacyanoferrate(II) and first-order with respect to cyanide. The reaction shows a strong positive primary salt effect, but a very small increase in the reaction rate with temperature is found. A parallel reaction proceeds with a first-order dependence with respect to hydroxide. A tentative mechanism is proposed for the first reaction, involving the formation of cyanogen radicals. The second reaction corresponds to the well-known decomposition of hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline medium. The catalysed reaction exhibits similar kinetics with respect to hexacyanoferrate(II) and (III) but is zero-order with respect to cyanide and hydroxide and first-order with respect to catalyst. The proposed mechanism involves two consecutive interactions of the hexacyanoferrate(III) with copper(I) and with copper(II) cyanide complexes respectively, followed by a 2-electron oxidation of a co-ordinatively bridging cyanide group.     

Kinetic study of 2‐propanol and benzyl alcohol oxidation by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III) catalyzed by a terpyridyl ruthenium complex

The complex (Trpy)RuCl₃ (Trpy = 2,2′:6′,2″‐terpyridine) reacts with alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III) to form a terpyridyl ruthenium(IV)‐oxo complex that catalyzes the oxidation of 2‐propanol and benzyl alcohol by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III). The reaction kinetics of this catalytic oxidation have been studied photometrically. The reaction rate shows a first‐order dependence on [RU(IV)], a zero‐order dependence on [hexacyanoferrate(III)], a fractional order in [substrate], and a fractional inverse order in [HO⁻]. The kinetic data suggest a reaction mechanism in which the catalytic species and its protonated form oxidize the uncoordinated alcohol in parallel slow steps. Isotope effects, substituent effects, and product studies suggest that both species oxidize alcohol through similar pericyclic processes. The reduced catalytic intermediates react rapidly with hexacyanoferrate(III) and hydroxide to reform the unprotonated catalytic species. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Kinetic, mechanistic and spectral studies for the oxidation of sulfanilic acid by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III)

The kinetics of oxidation of sulfanilic acid (p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid) by hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline medium was studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction showed first order kinetics in hexacyanoferrate(III) and alkali concentrations and an order of less than unity in sulfanilic acid concentration (SAA). The rate of reaction increases with increase in alkali concentration. Increasing ionic strength increases the rate but the dielectric constant of the medium has no significant effect on the rate of the reaction. A retarding effect was observed by one of the products i.e. hexacyanoferrate(II) (HCF(II)). A mechanism involving the formation of a complex between sulfanilic acid and hexacyanoferrate(III) has been proposed. The reaction constants involved in the mechanism are evaluated. There is a good agreement between the observed and calculated rate constants under different experimental conditions. Investigations at different temperatures allowed the determination of the activation parameters with respect to the slow step of the proposed mechanism.     

Kinetic studies of complexation reactions of water-soluble hydrazones with nickel(II) and palladium(II) ions

The kinetics of complexation reactions of five water-soluble heterocyclic hydrazones with nickel(II) and palladium(II) ions have been investigated by stopped-flow spectrophotometry. Rates of complexations with nickel(II) and palladium(II) in the absence of chloride ion were found to be proportional to the first order of the ligand and metal ion concentrations and to the inverse first order of the hydrogen ion concentration except for the complexation of alpha-(2-benzimidazolyl)-alpha-(5-nitro-2-pyridyl)hydrazono-3-toluenesulfonic acid with palladium(II). Rates of complexation with palladium(II) in the presence of chloride ion were best described by a two-term expression, both terms being first order in the palladium ion and ligand concentrations and inverse first order in the hydrogen ion concentration. The first term has zero dependence of the chloride ion concentration, whereas the second is first order with respect to the chloride ion concentration. The rate constant for each complexation reaction was determined. The complexation of the hydrazones with nickel(II) was estimated to go according to an Eigen mechanism and that with palladium (II) according to the associative mechanism.     

Osmium(VIII)-Catalyzed Oxidation of Some Cyclic Amines by Potassium Hexacyanoferrate(III) in Alkaline Media: a Kinetics and Mechanistic Study

Reactions of morpholine, piperidine, and piperazine with Os(VIII)-catalyzed hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline media to produce the corresponding lactam have been studied at constant temperature and ionic strength. The reactions followed first-order kinetics with respect to [amine] and [Os(VIII)] but were independent of [Fe(CN)₆ ^3-] and [OH^-]. The effects of introduced electrolytes, potassium hexacyanoferrate(II), relative permitivity, and temperature have also been studied. A mechanism accounting for these results has been proposed.     

Kinetics and mechanisms of oxidation by metal ions. Part XIII. Osmium(VIII)-catalysed oxidation of cycloalkanols by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III)

Summary The kinetics of OsO₄-catalysed oxidation of cyclopentanol, cyclohexanol and cyclooctanol by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III) have been studied at low [OH^–] so that the equilibrium between alcohol and alkoxide ion is not unduly shifted towards the latter. The reaction shows a first-order dependence in [OH^–]. The order of the reaction with respect to cycloalcohol is fractional, indicating the formation of an intermediate complex with Os^VIII since the order with respect to hexacyanoferrate(III) ion is zero. The order with respect to Os^VIII may be expressed by the equation k_obs=a+b[Os^VIII]. The analysis of the rate data indicates a significant degree of complex formation between [OsO₃(OH)₃]^– and ROH. It was found that the bimolecular rate constant k for the redox reaction between complex and OH^–k₁, the forward rate constant for the formation of alkoxide ion. The activation parameters of these rate constants are reported.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of phenylhydrazine and P-bromophenylhydrazine by hexacyanoferrate(III) in acidic medium

Kietics of oxidation of phenylhydrazine and p-bromophenylhydrazine by hexacyanoferrate(III) in acidic medium have been studied. The reactions follow similar kinetics, being first order with respect to both hydrazine and exacyanoferrate(III) and inverse first order with respect to the hydrogen ion. Addition of hexacyanoferrate(II) has no retarding effect on the rate of oxidation. The effects of varying ionic strength, dielectric constant, and temperature on the reaction rates have been investigated. A plausible mechanism has been proposed to account for the experimental results. Benzene and bromobenzene have been identified as the oxidation products.     

Oxidation of Ciprofloxacin by Hexacyanoferrate(III) in the Presence of Cu(II) as a Catalyst: A Kinetic Study

The Cu(II)‐catalyzed oxidation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) by hexacyanoferrate(III) (HCF) has been investigated spectrophotometrically in an aqueous alkaline medium at 40°C. The stoichiometry for the reaction indicates that the oxidation of 1 mol of CIP requires 2 mol of HCF. The reaction exhibited first‐order kinetics with respect to [HCF] and less than unit order with respect to [CIP] and [OH⁻]. The products were also identified on the basis of stoichiometric results and confirmed by the characterization results of LC‐MS and FT‐IR analysis. All the possible reactive species of the reactants have been discussed, and a most probable kinetic model has been envisaged. The activation parameters with respect to the slow step of the mechanism were computed, and thermodynamic quantities were also determined.     

Extraction mechanism for palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solution with 2-dodecylthiomethylpyridine using a stirred transfer cell.

2-Dodecylthiomethylpyridine (DTP) was newly synthesized to study its extraction properties for precious metals. DTP was a selective extractant for palladium(II) and gold(III) over base metals. The loading test for palladium(II) showed that one palladium ion reacted with one molecule of DTP. The extraction rate of palladium with DTP was measured using a Lewis-type transfer cell at 303 K. The extraction reaction of palladium with DTP has been found to be a first order reaction with respect to palladium ion, DTP, and hydrogen ion concentrations. This reaction is inversely proportional to chloride ion concentration. The rate-determining step was the parallel reactions of DTP with PdCl3(-) and PdCl4(2-) in the aqueous phase.     

Catalysis by Ir(III), Rh(III) and Pd(II) metal ions in the oxidation of organic compounds with H2O2

Catalytic activities of three transition metals, as iridium (III) chloride, rhodium (III) chloride and palladium (II) chloride, were compared in the oxidation of six aromatic aldehydes (benzaldehyde, p‐chloro benzaldehyde, p‐nitro benzaldehyde, m‐nitro benzaldehyde, p‐methoxy benzaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde), two hydrocarbons (viz. (anthracene and phenanthrene)) and one aromatic and one cyclic alcohol (cyclohexanol and benzyl alcohol) by 50% H₂O₂. The presence of traces (substrate: catalyst ratio equal to 1:62500 to 1:1961) of the chlorides of iridium(III), rhodium(III) and palladium(II) catalyze these oxidations, resulting in good to excellent yields. It was observed that in most of the cases palladium(II) chloride is the most efficient catalyst. Conditions for the highest and most economical yields were obtained. Deviation from the optimum conditions decreases the yields. Oxidation in aromatic aldehydes is selective at the aldehydeic group only and other groups remain unaffected. This new, simple and economical method, which is environmentally safe, also requires less time. Reactive species of catalysts, existing in the reaction mixture are also discussed.

Kinetic study of the ruthenium(VI)‐catalyzed oxidation of benzyl alcohol by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III)

The kinetics of the Ru(VI)‐catalyzed oxidation of benzyl alcohol by hexacyanoferrate(III), in an alkaline medium, has been studied using a spectrophotometric technique. The initial rates method was used for the kinetic analysis. The reaction is first order in [Ru(VI)], while the order changes from one to zero for both hexacyanoferrate(III) and benzyl alcohol upon increasing their concentrations. The rate data suggest a reaction mechanism based on a catalytic cycle in which ruthenate oxidizes the substrate through formation of an intermediate complex. This complex decomposes in a reversible step to produce ruthenium(IV), which is reoxidized by hexacyanoferrate(III) in a slow step. The theoretical rate law obtained is in complete agreement with all the experimental observations. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 34: 421–429, 2002     

Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of Captopril by Hexacyanoferrate(III) in Aqueous Acidic Medium

Captopril (Capt, 1-[2(s)-3-mercapto-2-methyl-1-oxopropyl]-l-proline) was oxidized by hexacyanoferrate(III) (HCF). The kinetics of the oxidation was studied spectrophotometrically at 420 nm. The reaction was found to be first order in [HCF] and [Capt] and to have a negative fractional order in [H⁺]. Oxidation was followed by generation of a free radical from captopril, and the oxidative product of catpotpril was identified as captopril disulfide. It was characterized by IR, GCMS and ESI–MS spectra. Initially added product, hexacyanoferrate(II), retarded the rate of reaction with an order of ?0.5. The retarding effect of added [H⁺] indicated that unprotonated hexacyanoferrate(III) is the active species. A suitable free radical mechanism was proposed. The rate law was derived and verified.     

Ruthenium(III) catalyzed oxidation of hexacyanoferrate(II) by periodate in aqueous alkaline medium

Ruthenium(III) catalyzed oxidation of hexacyanoferrate(II) by periodate in alkaline medium is assumed to occurvia substrate-catalyst complex formation followed by the interaction of oxidant and complex in the rate-limiting stage and yield the products with regeneration of catalyst in the subsequent fast step. The reaction exhibits fractional order in hexacyanoferrate(II) and first-order unity each in oxidant and catalyst. The reaction constants involved in the mechanism are derived.
