A kinetic and mechanistic study of oxidation of arsenic(III) by hexacyanoferrate(III) in aqueous ethanoic acid

The kinetics of oxidation of As^IIIby Fe(CN)₆ ^3– has been studied spectrophotometrically in 60% AcOH–H₂O containing 4.0moldm^–3HCl. The oxidation is made possible by the difference in redox potentials. The reaction is first order each in [Fe(CN)₆ ^3–] and [As^III]. Amongst the initially added products, Fe(CN)₆ ^4– retards the reaction and As^Vdoes not. Increasing the acid concentration at constant chloride concentration accelerates the reaction. At constant acidity increasing chloride concentration increases the reaction rate, which reaches a maximum and then decreases. H₂Fe(CN)₆ ^–, is the active species of Fe(CN)₆ ^3–, while AsCl₅ ^2– in an ascending portion and AsCl₂ ⁺ in a descending portion are considered to be the active species of As^III. A suitable reaction mechanism is proposed and the reaction constants of the different steps involved have been evaluated.     

Iridium(III) catalyzed oxidation of iodide ions in aqueous acidic medium

Oxidation of iodide ions by K₃Fe(CN)₆, catalyzed by hydrogen ions obtained from hydrochloric acid was found to be further catalyzed by iridium(III) chloride. Rate, when the reaction is catalyzed only by the hydrogen ions, was separated from the rate when iridium(III) and H⁺ions both, catalyze the reaction. Reactions studied separately in the presence as well as in the absence of IrCl₃ under similar conditions were found to follow second order kinetics with respect to [I⁻]. While the rate showed direct proportionality with respect to [K₃Fe(CN)₆] and [IrCl₃]. At low concentrations the reaction shows direct proportionality with respect to [H⁺] which tends to become proportional to the square of hydrogen ions at higher concentrations. Strong retarding affect of externally added hexacyanoferrate(II) ions was observed in the beginning but further addition affects the rate to a little extent. Changes in [Cl⁻] and also ionic strength of the medium have no effect on the rate. With the help of the intercept of catalyst graph, the extent of the reaction, which takes place without adding iridium(III), was calculated and was found to be in accordance with the values obtained from the separately studied reactions in which only H⁺ ions catalyze the reaction. It is proposed that iridium forms a complex, which slowly disproportionates into the rate-determining step. Thermodynamic parameters at four different temperatures were calculated.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of xylitol and galactitol by hexacyanoferrate(III) ion in aqueous alkaline medium

Kinetics of oxidation of xylitol and galactitol by hexacyanoferrate(III) ion in aqueous alkaline medium is reported. The reaction rate is of first order with respect to hexacyanoferrate(III) in each substrate. The reaction is first order at lower concentrations of xylitol and galactitol and tends towards zero order as the concentration increases. Similarly first order kinetics was obtained with respect to hydroxide ion at lower concentrations and tends to lower order at higher concentration in the oxidation of xylitol; in the oxidation of galactitol the reaction is first order with respect to hydroxide ion even up to manyfold variation. The course of reaction has been considered to proceed through the formation of an activated complex between [K Fe(CN)₆]^2– and substrate anion which decomposes slowly into radical and [K Fe(CN)₆]^3–. A probable reaction mechanism is proposed.

Kinetik und Mechanismus der Oxidation von Xylit und Galaktit mit Hexacyanoferrat(III) in wäßriger, alkalischer Lösung

Zusammenfassung Das Geschwindigkeitsgesetz der Titelreaktion ist in beiden Fällen erster Ordnung bezüglich Hexacyanoferrat(III). Die Oxidation ist erster Ordnung bei niedrigen Konzentrationen von Xylit und Galaktit und geht bei Erhöhung der Konzentration gegen null. In gleicher Weise wurde eine Kinetik erster Ordnung bezüglich Hydroxyl bei niedrigen Konzentrationen und eine erniedrigte Ordnung bei höheren Konzentrationen für die Oxidation von Xylit beobachtet; bei Galaktit bleibt die Oxidation auch bei höheren Hydroxyl-Konzentrationen erster Ordnung. Es wird angenommen, daß die Reaktion über einen aktivierten Komplex zwischen [KFe(CN)₆]^2– und dem Substrat-Anion verläuft; dieser Komplex zerfällt in [KFe(CN)₆]^3– und ein Substrat-Radikal. Ein möglicher Reaktionsmechanismus wird vorgeschlagen.

     

Ruthenium (III) catalysed and uncatalysed oxidation of torsemide by hexacyanoferrate (III) in aqueous alkaline medium: A kinetic comparative approach

The kinetics approach of oxidation of torsemide (TOR) by hexacyanoferrate (III) [HCF (III)] has been identified spectrophotometrically at 420 ​nm in the alkaline medium in the presence and absence of catalyst ruthenium (III) at 25 ​°C, by keeping ionic strength (1 ​× ​10⁻² ​mol ​dm⁻³) constant. The reaction exhibits at the stoichiometry ratio 1:2 of TOR and HCF (III), for uncatalysed and catalysed reactions. In the absence and presence of the catalyst, the order of the reactions obtained for TOR and HCF (III) was unity. However, the rate of the reactions enhanced by the increase in the concentration of catalyst, as well as the rate increases with an increase in alkaline concentration. The activation parameters for the reaction at the slow step were identified, and the effect of temperature on the rate of the reaction was analysed. A suitable mechanism has been demonstrated by considering the obtained results. The derived rate laws are reliable with analysed experimental kinetics.
