Kinetics and mechanism of permanganate oxidation of pectin polysaccharide in acid perchlorate media

The kinetics of oxidation of pectin polysaccharide as a natural polymer by permanganate ion in aqueous perchloric acid at a constant ionic strength of 2.0 mol dm⁻³ has been investigated spectrophotometrically. The reaction time curves showed two distinct stages, the initial stage was relatively slow, followed by an increase in the rate of oxidation at longer times. The results of the initial rates reveal first-order kinetics in permanganate ion and fractional-order with respect to pectin concentration. Kinetic evidence for the formation of an intermediate complex between the polysaccharide and the oxidant is presented. The results obtained at various hydrogen ion concentrations showed that the reaction is acid catalyzed. The added salts lead to the prediction that Mn⁴⁺ and/or Mn³⁺ play an important role in the autoaccleration period kinetics. A tentative reaction mechanism consistent with the kinetic results is discussed.     

Kinetics and mechanism of sulfite oxidation by permanganate in basic medium

The kinetics of the permanganate-sulfite redox reaction has been studied in the alkaline medium using a stopped-flow technique. In the pH range 10 to 12 the reaction was found to obey the rate expression: ?½d[MnO₄^?]/dt = (k₁ + k₂[OH^?]) [MnO₄^?] [SO₃^2?]. Mechanisms for the two paths involving the formation of a (O₃MnOSO₃)^3? complex prior to the rate-determining step are consistent with the data. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of L-α-amino-n-butyric acid by permanganate in acid medium

The kinetic study of the oxidation of L-α-amino-n-butyric acid by permanganate ions has been carried out in buffered acid medium at pH = 1–3, using a spectrophotometric technique. An auto-catalytic effect has been observed in all cases due to Mn²⁺ ions formed as a product of the reaction. A first-order reaction with respect to the amino acid and the permanganate ions in both processes, catalyzed and uncatalyzed was obtained. The influence of several factors (pH, temperature, ionic strength, and reactants concentration) on the rate constants has also been investigated. In this article we propose a reaction mechanism in accordance with the experimental results obtained. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of substituted mandelic acids by acid permanganate

The oxidation of mandelic acid and nine monosubstituted mandelic acids by acid permanganate, in the presence of fluoride ions, have been studied. The reaction is of first order with respect to each the oxidant, the substrate and hydrogen ions. The kinetic isotope effect, k_H/k_D = 3·76 at 25°. The oxidation exhibits a reaction constant ?+= ?2·23 ± 0·07 at 25°. The oxidation does not induce polymerisation of acrylonitrile and does not show any solvent isotope effect. The activation enthalpies entropies are linearly related (r = 0·979). A mechanism involving transfer of a hydride ion to the oxidant is proposed.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of some simple reducing sugars by permanganate ion in alkaline medium

The kinetics of oxidation of glucose, galactose, fructose, maltose and sucrose by alkaline permanganate anion has been studied. The reactions studied spectrophotometrically over a wide range of experimental conditions show that the rate of the reactions is enhanced by increase in pH, ionic strength, and temperature as well as the reactant concentrations. The mechanism has been proposed to proceed via the formation of enediol intermediate complexes and the order of reactivities of the sugars is fructose > glucose ≈ galactose > maltose > sucrose. The activation parameters were evaluated and lend further support to the proposed mechanism.

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of acetylacetone by permanganate ion

The kinetics and mechanism of permanganate ion oxidation of acetylacetone (Acac) was studied in acidic and alkaline media. The rate constants for keto, enol, and enolate anions were determined and discussed. Delocalization of the π‐electrons of the double bond by conjugation results in a slower oxidation rate of enol than can be usually observed for unsaturated compounds. In the case of the keto form, the acid‐catalyzed nucleophilic attack of permanganate ion occurs on the carbonyl‐C atom. For enolate anion a mechanism with basis‐catalyzed electron abstraction is suggested. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 38: 444–450, 2006     

Kinetics and mechanism of silver(I)-catalysed oxidation of malonic acid by peroxodiphosphate in acetate buffers

Summary The kinetics of the silver(I)-catalysed oxidation of malonic acid by peroxodiphosphate (pdp) was studied in acetate buffers. The rate law as represented by-d[pdp]/dt = {(k ₁ K _inf2 ^sup-1 [H⁺]² + k ₂[H⁺] + k ₃ K ₃)/ ([H⁺]²/K ₂ + [H⁺] + K ₃)}[pdp][Ag(I)] conforms to the proposed mechanism. The rate is independent of malonic acid concentrations. Acetate ions do not affect the rate; however, the rate decreases as the ionic strength increases. A probable portrait of reaction events is suggested. A comparative analysis of the reactivity pattern of malonic acid towards peroxodiphosphate and peroxodisulphate in presence of silver(I) has been made.     

Kinetics of stepwise oxidation of manganese(II) by peroxodisulphate in phosphoric acid medium

Summary The oxidation of Mn^II by S₂O₈ ^2– to Mn^VII in phosphoric acid medium proceeds via a stable Mn^III and Mn^IV species. The reaction is catalysed by Ag⁺ and exhibits first order dependence on [S₂O₈ ^2–], [Ag⁺] and, is independent of [Mn^II]. The [H⁺] has no significant effect on the reaction. It is observed that the PO₄ ^3– ion stabilises the transient manganese(III) and manganese(IV) species by forming a stable and soluble phosphato-complexes. The activation parameters for the two stages of oxidation, namely Mn^II Mn^IV and Mn^IVMn^VII at 25° C are E_a=52 ±4 kJ mole^–1, S^*=–57±2 JK^–1 mole^–1 and E_a =56±4 kJ mole^–1, S^*=–44±2 JK^–1 mole^–1, respectively. A mechanism consistent with the experimental observations is proposed.Presented at the National Symposium on Reaction Kinetics and Mechanism, Department of Chemistry, University of Jodhpur, Jodhpur, India, Nov. 15–18, 1986.     

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of sulfite by chlorine dioxide in a slightly acidic medium

The sulfite-chlorine dioxide reaction was studied by stopped-flow method at I = 0.5 M and at 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees C in a slightly acidic medium. The stoichiometry was found to be 2 SO(3)(2-) + 2.ClO(2) + H(2)O --> 2SO(4)(2) (-) + Cl(-) + ClO(3)(-) + 2H(+) in *ClO(2) excess and 6SO(3)(2-) + 2*ClO(2) --> S(2)O(6)(2-) + 4SO(4)(2-) + 2Cl(-) in total sulfite excess ([S(IV)] = [H(2)SO(3)] + [HSO(3)(-)] + [SO(3)(2-)]). A nine-step model with four fitted kinetic parameters is suggested in which the proposed adduct *SO(3)ClO(2)(2-) plays a significant role. The pH-dependence of the kinetic traces indicates that SO(3)(2-) reacts much faster with *ClO(2) than HSO(3)(-) does.

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of substituted benzylamines by cetyltrimethylammonium permanganate

Oxidation of meta- and para-substituted benzylamines by cetyltrimethylammonium permanganate (CTAP) to the corresponding aldimines is first order with respect to both the amine and CTAP. Oxidation of deuteriated benzylamine (PhCD₂NH₂) exhibited the presence of a substantial kinetic isotope effect (k _H /k _D = 5.60 at 293 K). This confirmed the cleavage of an α-C-H bond in the rate-determining step. Correlation analyses of the rates of oxidation of 19 monosubstituted benzylamines were performed with various single and multiparametric equations. The rates of the oxidation showed excellent correlations in terms of Yukawa—Tsuno and Brown’s equations. The polar reaction constants are negative. The oxidation exhibited an extensive cross-conjugation, in the transition state, between the electron-donating substituents and the reaction centre. A mechanism involving a hydride-ion transfer from the amine to CTAP in the rate-determining step has been proposed.
