The oxidation of a ternary complex of chromium(III), [Cr^III(DPA)(Mal)(H₂O)₂]^?, involving dipicolinic acid (DPA) as primary ligand and malonic acid (Mal) as co-ligand, was investigated in aqueous acidic medium. The periodate oxidation kinetics of [Cr^III(DPA)(Mal)(H₂O)₂]^? to give Cr(VI) under pseudo-first-order conditions were studied at various pH, ionic strength and temperature values. The kinetic equation was found to be as follows: \( {\text{Rate}} = {{\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]\left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} } \right]_{\text{T}} \left( {{{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]\left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} } \right]_{\text{T}} \left( {{{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right)} {\left\{ {\left( {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{4} } \right) + \left( {K_{5} \left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{6} K_{4} } \right)\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]} \right\}}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left\{ {\left( {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{4} } \right) + \left( {K_{5} \left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{6} K_{4} } \right)\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]} \right\}}} \) where k ₆ (3.65 × 10^?3 s^?1) represents the electron transfer reaction rate constant and K ₄ (4.60 × 10^?4 mol dm^?3) represents the dissociation constant for the reaction \( \left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} \left( {\text{DPA}} \right)\left( {\text{Mal}} \right)\left( {{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right)_{2} } \right]^{ - } \rightleftharpoons \left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} \left( {\text{DPA}} \right)\left( {\text{Mal}} \right)\left( {{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right)\left( {\text{OH}} \right)} \right]^{2 - } + {\text{H}}^{ + } \) and K ₅ (1.87 mol^?1 dm³) and K ₆ (22.83 mol^?1 dm³) represent the pre-equilibrium formation constants at 30 °C and I = 0.2 mol dm^?3. Hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was found to enhance the reaction rate, whereas sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) had no effect. The thermodynamic activation parameters were estimated, and the oxidation is proposed to proceed via an inner-sphere mechanism involving the coordination of IO₄ ^? to Cr(III).

The kinetics of oxidation of cis-[Cr^III(gly)₂(H₂O)₂]⁺ (gly = glycinate) by $ {\text{IO}}_{ 4}^{ - } $ has been studied in aqueous solutions. The reaction is first order in the chromium(III) complex concentration. The pseudo-first-order rate constant, k _obs, showed a small change with increasing $ \left[ {{\text{IO}}_{ 4}^{ - } } \right] $ . The pseudo-first-order rate constant, k _obs, increased with increasing pH, indicating that the hydroxo form of the chromium(III) complex is the reactive species. The reaction has been found to obey the following rate law: $ {\text{Rate}} = 2k^{\text{et}} K_{ 3} K_{ 4} \left[ {{\text{Cr}}\left( {\text{III}} \right)} \right]_{t} \left[ {{\text{IO}}_{ 4}^{ - } } \right]/\left\{ {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{ 3} + K_{ 3} K_{ 4} \left[ {{\text{IO}}_{ 4}^{ - } } \right]} \right\} $ .

An inner-sphere mechanism has been proposed for the oxidation process. The thermodynamic activation parameters of the processes involved are reported.     

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of diaquabis(1,10-phenanthroline) iron(II) by periodate in aqueous and micellar media

The kinetics of oxidation of [Fe^II(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁺ (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) by periodate were investigated in aqueous acidic medium at different [H⁺] over a temperature range of 20–40 °C. The reaction was studied under pseudo-first-order conditions by taking [IO ₄ ^? ] > tenfold over [Fe^II(phen)₂(H₂O) ₂ ²⁺ ]. The reaction rate increases with increasing [H⁺], and the kinetics of oxidation obeyed the following rate law:

$$ {\text{Rate}} = \left[ {{\text{Fe}}^{\text{II}} ({\text{phen}})_2({\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}})_{2}^{2 + } } \right]\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]\left\{ {k_{4} K_{2} + k_{5} K_{1} K_{3} [{\text{H}}^{ + } ]} \right\} $$

The surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate was found to enhance the rate, whereas cetyltrimethylammonium bromide had little effect. Activation parameters associated with k ₂ and k ₃ were calculated. An electron transfer from Fe(II) to I(VII) is identified as the rate-determining step. The I(VI) species thus generated reacts in a fast step with another Fe(II) complex.

     

Kinetics and mechanism of substitution of bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-triazine)iron(II) by 2,2′,6,2″-terpyridine

The substitution of bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-triazine)iron(II), \textFe(TPTZ) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(TPTZ)}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} by 2,2′,6,2″-terpyridine (terpy) occurs on a time scale of about 6 m. The kinetics of this reaction was followed by stopped-flow spectrophotometry in the pH range of 3.6–5.6 in acetate buffer. The data indicate that the reaction occurs in two consecutive steps: kinetic data for both steps were acquired simultaneously and analyzed independently. The first step is assigned to the reaction between \textFe(TPTZ) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(TPTZ)}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} and terpy to give Fe(TPTZ)(terpy)²⁺, followed by its reaction with another terpy molecule to give the final product, \textFe(terpy) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(terpy)}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} . The rate of the reaction increases with increases in [terpy] and pH. The kinetic and activation parameters determined for both steps suggest that they involve both associative and dissociative paths. The ternary complex Fe(TPTZ)(terpy)²⁺ has been prepared, and the kinetics of its reaction with terpy suggest that this reaction is identical with the second step of the \textFe(TPTZ) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(TPTZ)}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} -terpy system, supporting the proposed mechanism.

The results are in accord with a mechanism involving a fast 11 outer-sphere association between chromium(III) species and amino acid zwitterion, followed by transformation of the outer-into inner-sphere complex by slow interchange. The rate law consistent with the mechanism is as follows:

Bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-triazine)iron(II), \textFe(\textTPTZ) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(\text{TPTZ})}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} reacts with 3-(2-pyridyl)-5,6-bis(4-phenyl-sulfonicacid)-1,2,4-triazine (PDTS) and 3-(4-(4-phenylsulfonicacid)-2-pyridyl)-5,6-bis(4-phenylsulfonic-acid)-1,2,4-triazine (PPDTS) to give \textFe(PDTS) ₃ ^4- {\text{Fe(PDTS)}}_{ 3}^{ 4- } and \textFe(PPDTS) ₃ ^7- {\text{Fe(PPDTS)}}_{ 3}^{ 7- } respectively. Both of these substitution reactions are fast and their kinetics were monitored by stopped-flow spectrophotometry in acetate buffers in the pH range of 3.6–5.6 at 25–45 °C. Both reactions are first order in \textFe(TPTZ) ₂ ^{2 +} {\text{Fe(TPTZ)}}_{ 2}^{{ 2 { + }}} and triazine, and pH has negligible effect on the rate. The kinetic data suggest that these reactions occur in an associative path and a mechanism is proposed considering both protonated and unprotonated forms of PDTS and PPDTS are very similar in reactivity. The kinetic and activation parameters have been evaluated.     

Isosaccharinate Complexes of Fe(III)

Prior to this study there were no thermodynamic data for isosaccharinate (ISA) complexes of Fe(III) in the environmental range of pH (>~4.5). This study was undertaken to obtain such data in order to predict Fe(III) behavior in the presence of ISA. The solubility of Fe(OH)₃(2-line ferrihydrite), referred to as Fe(OH)₃(s), was studied at 22?±?2?°C in: (1) very acidic (0.01?mol·dm^?3 H⁺) to highly alkaline conditions (3?mol·dm^?3 NaOH) as a function of time (11?C421?days), and fixed concentrations of 0.01 or 0.001?mol·dm^?3 NaISA; and (2) as a function of NaISA concentrations ranging from approximately 0.0001 to 0.256?mol·dm^?3 and at fixed pH values of approximately 4.5 and 11.6 to determine the ISA complexes of Fe(III). The data were interpreted using the SIT model that included previously reported stability constants for $ {{\text{Fe(ISA}})_{n}}^{3 - n} $ (with n varying from 1 to 4) and Fe(III)?COH complexes, and the solubility product for Fe(OH)₃(s) along with the values for two additional complexes (Fe(OH)₂(ISA)(aq) and $ {\text{Fe(OH)}}_{ 3} ( {{\text{ISA}})_{2}}^{2 - } $ ) determined in this study. These extensive data provided a log₁₀ K ⁰ value of 1.55?±?0.38 for the reaction $ ({\text{Fe}}^{ 3+ } + {\text{ISA}}^{-} + 2 {\text{H}}_{ 2} {\text{O}} \rightleftarrows {\text{Fe(OH}})_{ 2} {\text{ISA(aq}}) + 2 {\text{H}}^{ + } ) $ and a value of ?3.27?±?0.32 for the reaction $ ({\text{Fe}}^{ 3+ } + 2 {\text{ISA}}^{-} + 3 {\text{H}}_{ 2} {\text{O}} \rightleftarrows {\text{Fe(OH)}}_{ 3} ( {\text{ISA}})_{2}^{2 - } + 3 {\text{H}}^{ + } ) $ and show that ISA forms strong complexes with Fe(III) which significantly increase the Fe(OH)₃(s) solubility at pH?<~12. Thermodynamic calculations show that competition of Fe(III) with tetravalent ions for ISA does not significantly affect the solubilities of tetravalent hydrous oxides (e.g., Th and Np(IV)) in ISA solutions.

The kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of [Cr^III(DPA)(IDA)(H₂O)]^? (DPA = dipicolinate and IDA = iminodiacetate) by periodate in the presence of Mn(II) as a catalyst have been investigated. The rate of the reaction increases with increasing pH, due to the deprotonation equilibria of the complex. Addition of Mn(II) in the concentration range of (2.5–10) × 10^?6 mol dm^?3 enhanced the reaction rate; the reaction is first order with respect to both [IO₄ ^?] and the Cr complex, and obeys the following rate law: \( {\text{Rate}} = [ {\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} ({\text{DPA}})({\text{IDA}})({\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}})^{ - } ][{\text{Mn}}^{\text{III}} ]\{ (k_{7} + K_{1} k_{8} /[{\text{H}}^{ + } ]) + [{\text{I}}^{\text{VII}} ]((k_{9} k_{11} /k_{ - 9} + k_{11} ) + (K_{1} k_{10} k_{12} )/(k_{ - 10} + k_{12} )[{\text{H}}^{ + } ])\} . \) Catalysis by Mn(II) is believed to be due to initial oxidation of Mn(II) to Mn(III), which acts as the oxidizing agent. It is proposed that electron transfer proceeds through an inner-sphere mechanism via coordination of IO₄ ^? to Cr(III). Thermodynamic activation parameters were calculated using the transition state theory equation.     

Kinetics of Oxidation of L-Valine by a Copper(III) Periodate Complex in Alkaline Medium

The kinetics of oxidation of L-valine by a copper(III) periodate complex was studied spectrophotometrically. The inverse second-order dependency on [OH⁻] was due to the formation of the protonated diperiodatocuprate(III) complex ([Cu(H₃IO₆)₂]⁻) from [Cu(H₂IO₆)₂]³⁻. The retarding effect of initially added periodate suggests that the dissociation of copper(III) periodate complex occurs in a pre-equilibrium step in which it loses one periodate ligand. Among the various forms of copper(III) periodate complex occurring in alkaline solutions, the monoperiodatocuprate(III) appears to be the active form of copper(III) periodate complex. The observed second-order dependency of [L-valine] on the rate of reaction appears to result from formation of a complex with monoperiodatocuprate(III) followed by oxidation in a slow step. A suitable mechanism consistent with experimental results was proposed. The rate law was derived as:
