Cr(VI) oxidation using cetylpicolinium dichromate: Kinetics of oxidation of benzaldehydes with a green protocol

Oxidation kinetics of benzaldehyde and some of its ortho- and para-monosubstituted derivatives have been studied using cetylpicolinium dichromates, a class of novel phase transfer oxidants, in dichloromethane medium. The rate of reaction is first order with respect to oxidant and fractional order with respect to the substrates. The Michaelis–Menten type oxidation was observed with respect to the substrates. Benzaldehydes are found to be oxidized to their corresponding acids. The mechanism of oxidation reaction has been suggested based on the solvent isotope effect, Hammett plot, and thermodynamic study. The solvent isotope effect (k_CHCl3/k_CDCl3 = 1.57) indicates the involvement of hydrogen exchange with the medium during oxidation reactions. A strong influence of specific solute–solvent interactions on the rate of the reaction is observed. Both the electron-withdrawing and electron-releasing substituents on the substrates accelerate the rate of reaction.     

Kinetics of edta catalyzed oxidation of I? by Cr(VI)

The activity of various iron-containing ore catalysts during hydrogenation of Kansk-Achinsk lignite into liquid products in H-donor solvent (tetraline) has been studied. Ore samples contained pyrite, hematite and magnetite minerals. The most active appear to be pyrite samples. The catalytic effect of ore systems is, apparently, associated with the fact that during hydrogenation more active than tetraline H-donors are formed due to the hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic molecules produced by thermal destruction of lignite.

Redox and complexation chemistry of the Cr(VI)/Cr(V)-D-galacturonic acid system

The oxidation of d-galacturonic acid by Cr(VI) yields the aldaric acid and Cr(III) as final products when a 30-times or higher excess of the uronic acid over Cr(VI) is used. The redox reaction involves the formation of intermediate Cr(IV) and Cr(V) species, with Cr(VI) and the two intermediate species reacting with galacturonic acid at comparable rates. The rate of disappearance of Cr(VI), Cr(IV) and Cr(V) depends on pH and [substrate], and the slow reaction step of the Cr(VI) to Cr(III) conversion depends on the reaction conditions. The EPR spectra show that five-coordinate oxo-Cr(V) bischelates are formed at pH < or = 5 with the uronic acid bound to Cr(V) through the carboxylate and the alpha-OH group of the furanose form or the ring oxygen of the pyranose form. Six-coordinated oxo-Cr(V) monochelates are observed as minor species in addition to the major five-coordinated oxo-Cr(V) bischelates only for galacturonic acid : Cr(VI) < or =10 : 1, in 0.25-0.50 M HClO(4). At pH 7.5 the EPR spectra show the formation of a Cr(V) complex where the vic-diol groups of Galur participate in the bonding to Cr(V). At pH 3-5 the Galur-Cr(V) species grow and decay over short periods in a similar way to that observed for [Cr(O)(alpha-hydroxy acid)(2)](-). The lack of chelation at any vic-diolate group of Galur when pH < or = 5 differentiates its ability to stabilise Cr(V) from that of neutral saccharides that form very stable oxo-Cr(V)(diolato)(2) species at pH > 1.

Vanadium(V) oxidation ofL-arabinose has been found to be first order with respect to oxidant and substrate concentrations. It has been found that the order with respect to [H⁺] changes from one in 2.5M–4.5M acid concentration range to two in 5.0M–6.5M acid concentration range. The oxidation rate has been found to increase with ionic strength and decrease with dielectric constant of the medium. Thermodynamic parameters E, S and G have been evaluated as 22.63±0.19 kcal/mol,–3.00±0.65 e. u. and 23.59±±0.05 kcal/mol respectively. The reaction has been found to be initiated by the formation of free radical in a slow rate determining step.

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of N-substituted phenothiazines by chromium(VI)

The kinetics of oxidation of N-acetylphenothiazine (NAPT) by Cr(VI) in 80% acetic acid-20% water (v/v) mixture is first-order each in [NAPT] and [Cr(VI)]. The reaction is catalysed by added acid with a third-order dependence in [HCIO₄], Increase in polarity of the solvent medium decreases the rate. The oxidation is insensitive to variations in ionic strength as well as added acrylamide. Oxidations of phenothiazine (PT) and N-methylphenothiazine (NMPT) under similar conditions are found to be very fast. However kinetic investigations with NMPT in an acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer show first-order dependence each in [NMPT] and [Cr(VI)] and a fractional-order dependence in [H⁺] in the pH range 1.80-3.09. Increase in polarity of the medium increases the rate. In both the cases, the corresponding sulphoxides are identified as oxidation products. Based on the kinetic results, mechanisms for oxidations are proposed.

Simultaneous kinetic thermometric determination of V(V) and W(VI) traces by the inhibitory effect of W(VI) on the V(V)-catalysed oxidation of thiosulphate ion by hydrogen peroxide

Summary A new method for the simultaneous kinetic thermometric determination of V(V) and W(VI) traces based on the inhibitory effect of the latter ion on the catalytic action of the former on the oxidation of thiosulphate ion by hydrogen peroxide was developed. A universal mathematical model for the kinetics of the process which includes the catalytic and inhibitory effects of the species involved and relies on the standard-addition and Newton-Gauss methods facilitates the determination. The applicability ranges of the proposed method are 0.1–0.8 ppm V(V) and 1–14 ppm W(VI). The method is subject to few interferences, of which those from Fe(III) and Mo(VI), which also catalyse the analytical reaction, are the most serious.     

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of hydroquinones by a trans-dioxoruthenium(VI) complex

The kinetics of the oxidation of hydroquinone (H(2)Q) and its derivatives (H(2)Q-X) by trans-[Ru(VI)(tmc)(O)(2)](2+) (tmc = 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) have been studied in aqueous acidic solutions and in acetonitrile. In H(2)O, the oxidation of H(2)Q has the following stoichiometry: trans-[Ru(VI)(tmc)(O)(2)](2+) + H(2)Q --> trans-[Ru(IV)(tmc)(O)(OH(2))](2+) + Q. The reaction is first order in both Ru(VI) and H(2)Q, and parallel pathways involving the oxidation of H(2)Q and HQ(-) are involved. The kinetic isotope effects are k(H(2)O)/k(D(2)O) = 4.9 and 1.2 at pH = 1.79 and 4.60, respectively. In CH(3)CN, the reaction occurs in two steps, the reduction of trans-[Ru(VI)(tmc)(O)(2)](2+) by 1 equiv of H(2)Q to trans-[Ru(IV)(tmc)(O)(CH(3)CN)](2+), followed by further reduction by another 1 equiv of H(2)Q to trans-[Ru(II)(tmc)(CH(3)CN)(2)](2+). Linear correlations between log(rate constant) at 298.0 K and the O-H bond dissociation energy of H(2)Q-X were obtained for reactions in both H(2)O and CH(3)CN, consistent with a H-atom transfer (HAT) mechanism. Plots of log(rate constant) against log(equilibrium constant) were also linear for these HAT reactions.     

Kinetics and mechanisms of the oxidation of phenols by a trans-dioxoruthenium(VI) complex

The kinetics of the oxidation of phenols by trans-[Ru(VI)(L)(O)(2)](2+) (L = 1,12-dimethyl-3,4:9,10-dibenzo-1,12-diaza-5,8-dioxacyclopentadecane) have been studied in aqueous acidic solutions and in acetonitrile. In H(2)O the oxidation of phenol produces the unstable 4,4'- biphenoquinone, as evidenced by a rapid increase and then a slow decrease in absorbance at 398 nm. The first step is first-order in both Ru(VI) and phenol, and rate constants are dependent on [H(+)] according to the relationship k(f) = k(x) + (k(y)K(a)/[H(+)]), where k(x) and k(y) are the rate constants for the oxidation of PhOH and PhO(-), respectively. At 298 K and I = 0.1 M, k(x) = 12.5 M(-1) s(-1) and k(y) = 8.0 x 10(8) M(-1) s(-1). At I = 0.1 M and pH = 2.98, the kinetic isotope effects are k(H(2)O)/k(D(2)O) = 4.8 and 0.74 for k(x) and k(y), respectively, and k(f)(C(6)H(5)OH)/k(f)(C(6)D(5)OH) = 1.1. It is proposed that the k(x) step occurs by a hydrogen atom abstraction mechanism, while the k(y) step occurs by an electron-transfer mechanism. In both steps the phenoxy radical is produced, which then undergoes two rapid concurrent reactions. The first is a further three-electron oxidation by Ru(VI) and Ru(V) to give p-benzoquinone and other organic products. The second is a coupling and oxidation process to give 4,4'-biphenoquinone, followed by the decay step, k(s). A similar mechanism is proposed for reactions in CH(3)CN. A plot of log k(x) vs O-H bond dissociation enthalpies (BDE) of the phenols separates those phenols with bulky tert-butyl substituents in the ortho positions from those with no 2,6-di-tert-butyl groups into two separate lines. This arises because there is steric crowding of the hydroxylic groups in 2,6-di-tert-butyl phenols, which react more slowly than phenols of similar O-H BDE but no 2,6-tert-butyl groups. This is as expected if hydrogen atom abstraction but not electron transfer is occurring.     

Investigation of removal of Cr(VI), Mo(VI), W(VI), V(IV), and V(V) oxy-ions from industrial waste-waters by adsorption and electrosorption at high-area carbon cloth

Adsorption and electrosorption of Cr(VI), Mo(VI), W(VI), V(IV), and V(V) ions from water samples at low concentration were studied at high-area C-cloth electrodes. The concentrations of ions in the solution were monitored using in situ UV spectroscopy. All the investigated ions, except V(IV), showed better adsorption in acidic media. Positive polarization of the C-cloth caused increased adsorption of Cr(VI), Mo(VI), and V(V) ions. When previously adsorbed, Mo(VI) and V(V) ions were shown to be largely desorbable by negative polarization of the C-cloth. Since V(IV) does not become adsorbed significantly at the C-cloth in acidic media, the method provides an interesting means for separation of V(V) and V(IV) species in solution.     

Chromium(VI), chromium(V) and chromium(IV) oxidation of 12-tungstocobaltate(II)

The reaction between Cr^VI and 12-tungstocobaltate(II) was carried out in 2.0 mol dm^–3 HCl and followed a simple second order rate law. The reaction was catalysed by hydrogen ion due to the formation of active H₂CrO₄ and was inhibited by chloride ion as, in its presence, conversion of the active species into inactive chlorochromate occurs. Chromium(V) and chromium(IV) were generated in situ by the use of Cr^VI—V^IV or Cr^VI—2-ethyl-2-hydroxybutyric acid and Cr^VI—i-PrOH reactions respectively, and the oxidation of 12-tungstocobaltate(II) by these atypical oxidation states, was also studied. The rate constants for the oxidation of 12-tungstocobaltate(II) by Cr^VI, Cr^V and Cr^IV were found to be in the ratio 1:1.2:5.2 respectively. The ionic strength did not affect the reaction, while decrease in the solvent polarity increased the rate of the reaction. The activation parameters were also determined and the values H , G and S were found to be 52.4 ± 6 kJ mol^–1, 100.8 ± 7 kJ mol^–1, –151.7 ± 10 J K^–1 mol^–1 respectively, supporting the mechanism proposed.
