The kinetics of oxidation of low molecular weight aldehydes by potassium ferrate

Summary Oxidation of simple aldehydes is shown to follow a mixed order rate equation(¹), which contains three terms: the first, first order in the concentration of potassium ferrate (K₂FeO₄); the second, second order in K₂FeO₄; and the third contains the conditional rate constants which are substrate (aldehyde) concentration dependent. The third term is first order dependent on (K₂FeO₄). Aldehydes studied included chloral, acetaldehyde, and trimethylacetaldehyde.     

The kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of seleno-DL- methionine by potassium ferrate

The kinetics of the reaction of seleno-DL-methionine with potassium ferrate were investigated under pseudo first-order conditions. The oxidation to the selenoxide is complete within the timeframe of 7.5ms to 2s. The kinetics are first-order in each of the hydrogen ion, selenomethionine and ferrate ion concentrations over the pH range 8.53 to 10.13, but zeroth-order in hydrogen ion concentration at lower pH values. The results are very similar for methionine, except that the overall rate constant is over two orders of magnitude lower. The proposed mechanism involves a rate- determining step between selenomethionine and the protonated ferrate ion.     

The kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of DL ethionine and thiourea by potassium ferrate

The kinetics of the reaction between ethionine and thiourea were investigated under pseudo and non-pseudo-first-order conditions. Ethionine was oxidized to the sulfoxide within 500 s and thiourea was oxidized to urea within 10 s. Above a pH of ca. 8.5 the reaction was first-order in the concentration of the organosulfur compound, the hydrogen ions and the ferrate ions, whereas, below this pH, the kinetics were independent of the hydrogen ion concentration. A possible mechanism for both compounds is initial protonation of the ferrate ion followed by the two electron rate-determining step of addition of oxygen to the organosulfur compound. The kinetic parameters for ethionine compare favorably with those for similar compounds, whereas thiourea tends to be more active. The rate constant for the rate-determining step is 4.1 × 10² M^–1 s^–1 for ethionine and 4.1 × 10³ M^–1 s^–1 for thiourea.

The kinetics and mechanism of the ferrate(VI) oxidation of hydroxylamines

Aqueous solutions of potassium ferrate(VI) cleanly and rapidly oxidize hydroxylamine to nitrous oxide, N-methylhydroxylamine to nitrosomethane, N-phenylhydroxylamine to nitrosobenzene, and O-methylhydroxylamine to methanol and nitrogen. The kinetics show first-order behavior with respect to each reactant and a two term component representing acid dependent and independent pathways. A general mechanism involving intermediate formation coupled with a two-electron oxidation is proposed.     

The determination of some aliphatic alcohols and aldehydes by oxidation with acid potassium dichromate

The oxidation of n-propanol and n-butanol and the corresponding aldehydes by dilute acid potassium dichromate has been investigated. Some carbon -carbon bond fission occurs, and it has been shown that this takes place via the enol form of the aldehyde formed in the first stage of the oxidation. However, the proportion of this degradation is constant over a wide range of conditions and the method is capable of being used for the quantitative determination of simple aliphatic alcohols and aldehydes.

A theoretical study of alcohol oxidation by ferrate

The conversion of methanol to formaldehyde mediated by ferrate (FeO(4)2-), monoprotonated ferrate (HFeO4-), and diprotonated ferrate (H2FeO4) is discussed with the hybrid B3LYP density functional theory (DFT) method. Diprotonated ferrate is the best mediator for the activation of the O-H and C-H bonds of methanol via two entrance reaction channels: (1) an addition-elimination mechanism that involves coordination of methanol to diprotonated ferrate; (2) a direct abstraction mechanism that involves H atom abstraction from the O-H or C-H bond of methanol. Within the framework of the polarizable continuum model (PCM), the energetic profiles of these reaction mechanisms in aqueous solution are calculated and investigated. In the addition-elimination mechanism, the O-H and C-H bonds of ligating methanol are cleaved by an oxo or hydroxo ligand, and therefore the way to the formation of formaldehyde is branched into four reaction pathways. The most favorable reaction pathway in the addition-elimination mechanism is initiated by an O-H cleavage via a four-centered transition state that leads to intermediate containing an Fe-O bond, followed by a C-H cleavage via a five-centered transition state to lead to formaldehyde complex. In the direct abstraction mechanism, the oxidation reaction can be initiated by a direct H atom abstraction from either the O-H or C-H bond, and it is branched into three pathways for the formation of formaldehyde. The most favorable reaction pathway in the direct abstraction mechanism is initiated by C-H activation that leads to organometallic intermediate containing an Fe-C bond, followed by a concerted H atom transfer from the OH group of methanol to an oxo ligand of ferrate. The first steps in both mechanisms are all competitive in energy, but due to the significant energetical stability of the organometallic intermediate, the most likely initial reaction in methanol oxidation by ferrate is the direct C-H bond cleavage.     

Microdetermination of divalent sulphur in aliphatic compounds by visual titrimetry,potentiometry, and atomic absorption spectrometry

Summary Divalent sulphur in structurally different aliphatic compounds including thiols, sulphides, disulphides and thiocarbonyls is selectively determined by reaction with solid potassium hydroxide at 250–280° for 5–10 min, followed by addition of alkali plumbite whereby lead sulphide is stoichiometrically formed. The excess lead ions are measured by: (a) atomic absorption spectrometry at 217 nm; or (b) potentiometric titration with EDTA at pH 4.6 using the lead ion selective electrode; or (c) visual titration with EDTA using urotropine buffer and Xylenol Orange indicator. An average recovery of 99%, and a mean standard deviation of 0.9% are obtainable with samples down to 2 mg. Divalent sulphur in many aromatic compounds, and tetra- and hexa-valent sulphur in both aliphatic and aromatic compounds do not interfere.

Titrimetric microdetermination of certain sulphur-containing organic compounds by oxidation with alkaline potassium permanganate

A titrimetric procedure is described for the microdetermination of some mercaptans and sulphur-containing amino-acids by oxidation with alkaline potassium permanganate at room temperature in presence of barium ions. The procedure can be applied to 0.002-0.025M solutions with an average deviation of 0.1-0.5%. The effect of variation in the amount of alkali and barium chloride and in the reaction period, on the stoichiometry of the oxidation reactions, has also been studied.     

Electrochemical studies of potassium ferrate(VI)

The electrochemical reduction of potassium ferrate(VI) in 6N-KOH occurs in three steps, at approximately +0.3, ?0.7, and ?1.4 V vs. Hg/HgO, 6N-KOH. The first reduction appears as a voltammetric wave on a platinum electrode and the second two are observed as polarographic waves with a dropping mercury electrode. Controlled potential coulometric, voltammetric, and chronopotentiometric studies indicate the reduction proceeds stepwise first to iron(III), then to iron(II) and finally to iron(0).

The determination of cobalt by oxidation with potassium molybdicyanide

Cobalt has been determined titrimetrieally and coulometrically by oxidation of the bivalent ion with potassium molybdicyanide, K₃Mo(CN)₈, in ammoniacal medium. The break in potential at the equivalence-point is approximately 0.6 volt. Manganese is not oxidized stoichiometrically in citrate media, but the total of cobalt and manganese may be obtained in the presence of fluoride. Iron interferes when fluoride, but not when citrate is used as the complexing agent. The method, therefore, is not directly applicable to steels where both iron and manganese are present.
