Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of some reducing sugars by diperiodatoargentate(III) in alkaline medium

Summary The kinetics of oxidation of d-glucose, d-galactose, d-fructose, d-ribose, d-arabinose, d-xylose and 2-deoxyd-glucose by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) have been investigated in alkaline medium. The order of the reaction with respect to [DPA] is unity while the order with respect to [sugar] is < 1 over the concentration range studied. The rate increases with an increase in [OH ^–] and there is a marginal decrease in the rate with an increase in [IO _inf4 ^sup– ]. No significant dependence on ionic strength was found, but the rate increases with a decreasing dielectric constant. Formic acid and the corresponding aldonic acids were detected as the products of oxidation. The participation of the open chain form of the sugar and a mechanism involving the initial formation of a complex between the enediol of the sugar and Ag^III are proposed.

Summary The kinetics of the Os^VIII-catalyzed oxidation of phosphite by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) have been investigated in aqueous base. The reaction rate is independent of [DPA], but first order with respect to [phosphite] and to [Os^VIII]. The rate of reaction increases with increase in [KOH] and tends to a limiting value. Activation parameters have been calculated and suitable mechanism is proposed to explain the observed results.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of 2-Aminoethanol and 3-Amino-1-propanol by diperiodatoargentate(III) in alkaline medium

The kinetics of oxidation of 2-aminoethanol and 3-amino-1-propanol by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) were carried out spectrophotometrically in alkaline medium in the temperature range of 293.2-308.2 K. The reaction showed first order with respect to [DPA] and each reductant. The observed rate constant (k _obs) decreased with the increase of [IO₄ ^-] and increased with the increase of [OH^-]. Increasing ionic strength of the medium decreased the rate. Investigations of the reaction at different temperatures allowed the determination of the activation parameters for the slow step of proposed mechanism. The proposed mechanism and the derived rate laws found consistent with the observed kinetics.     

Kinetics of oxidation of some aliphatic ketones by ditelluratocuprate(III) in alkaline medium

The kinetics of oxidation of some ketones by ditelluratocuprate(III) were followed spectrophotometrically by estimating the disappearence of potassium ditelluratocuprate(III). The reaction follows first order kinetics in both substrates and oxidant. A correlation is found between the order of reactivity and partial rates of enolization of these ketones. By assuming that the mechanism of oxidation involves the enol form of the ketone in a slow step, the observed order of reactivity of these ketones is explained.

Oxidation of L-phenylalanine by diperiodatoargentate(III) in aqueous alkaline medium. A Mechanistic approach

The kinetics of oxidation of L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) in alkaline medium at a constant ionic strength of 0.25 mol/dm⁻³ has been studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction between DPA and L-phenylalanine in alkaline medium exhibits 1: 1 stoichiometry (L-phenylalanine: DPA). The reaction shows first order in [DPA] and has less than unit order dependence each in both [L-Phe] and [Alkali] and retarding effect of [IO₄⁻] under the reaction conditions. The active species of DPA is understood to be as monoperiodatoargentate(III) (MPA). The reaction is shown to proceed via a MPA-L-Phe complex, which decomposes in a rate-determining step to give intermediates followed by a fast step to give the products. The products were identified by spot and spectroscopic studies. The reaction constants involved in the different steps of the mechanisms were calculated. The activation parameters with respect to slow step of the mechanism were computed and discussed. The thermodynamic quantities were also determined for the reaction.     

Kinetics and mechanism of Os(VIII)-catalyzed hexacyanoferrate(III) oxidation of α amino acids in alkaline medium

The kinetics of the Os(VIII)-catalyzed oxidation of glycine, alanine, valine, phenylalanine, isoleucine, lycine, and glutamic acid by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III) reveal that these reactions are zero order in hexacyanoferrate(III) and first order in Os(VIII). The order in amino acid as well as in alkali is 1 at [amino acid] ?2.5 × 10^?2M and [OH^?] ?1.3 × 10^?M, but less than unity at higher concentrations of amino acids or alkali. The active oxidizing species under the experimental conditions is OsO₄(H₂O) (OH)^?. The ferricyanide is merely used up to regenerate the Os(VIII) species from Os(VI) formed during the reaction. The structural influence of amino acids on the reactivity has been discussed. The amino acids during oxidation are shown to be degraded through intermediate keto acids. The kinetic data are accommodated by considering the interaction between the conjugate base of the amino acids and the active oxidizing species of Os(VIII) to form a transient complex in the primary rate-determining step. The catalytic effect of hexacyanoferrate(II) has been rationalized.     

Kinetics of oxidation of glycine and related substrates by diperiodatoargentate (III)

The reactions of diperiodatoargentate(III) with glycine and related compounds have been examined. The monoperiodatosilver(III) species acts as an active oxidant in comparison to that of diperiodatosilver(III) species. These reactions consist of three kinetically distinguishable steps-induction period, complexation and oxidation. Complexation of these substrates takes place with a second order rate constant of (0.2–1.6)×10⁴ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ whereas the redox process occurs at a rate of (0.3–6.0)×10² dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ except in case of cysteine with which these processes occurred by an order of magnitude faster. The rate of electron transfer from carboxylic acids to the silver(III) complex is observed to be several order of magnitude smaller in comparison to that of amino acids. Both the rate of complexation and electron transfer are influenced by the structure of the substrates. The aquated silver(III) species is found to be more reactive in comparison to the hydroxylated silver(III) species.

Oxidative degradation and deamination of atenolol by diperiodatocuprate(III) in aqueous alkaline medium: A mechanistic study

The kinetics of oxidation of atenolol (ATN) by diperiodatocuprate(III) (DPC) in aqueous alkaline medium at a constant ionic strength of 0.10 mol dm⁻³ was studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction between DPC and ATN in alkaline medium exhibits 1:2 stoichiometry (ATN:DPC). The reaction is of first order in [DPC] and has less than unit order in both [ATN] and [alkali]. However, the order in [ATN] and [alkali] changes from first order to zero order as their concentration increase. Intervention of free radicals was observed in the reaction. Increase in periodate concentration decreases the rate. The oxidation reaction in alkaline medium has been shown to proceed via a monoperiodatocuprate(III)–ATN complex, which decomposes slowly in a rate-determining step followed by other fast steps to give the products. The main oxidative products were identified by spot test, IR, NMR and LC–ESI-MS studies. The reaction constants involved in the different steps of the mechanism are calculated. The activation parameters with respect to slow step of the mechanism are computed and discussed, and thermodynamic quantities are also determined.

Ruthenium(III) catalysed oxidation of l-leucine by a new oxidant,diperiodatoargentate(III) in aqueous alkaline medium

The kinetics of Ru(III) catalysed oxidation of l-leucine by diperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) in alkaline medium at 298 K and a constant ionic strength of 0.60 mol dm⁻³ was studied spectrophotometrically. The oxidation products are pentanoic acid and Ag(I). The stoichiometry is [l-leucine]:[DPA] = 1:2. The reaction is of first order in Ru(III) and [DPA] and has less than unit order in both [l-leu] and [alkali]. The oxidation reaction in alkaline medium has been shown to proceed via a Ru(III)–l-leucine complex, which further reacts with one molecule of monoperiodatoargentate(III) (MPA) in a rate determining step followed by other fast steps to give the products. The main products were identified by spot test and spectral studies. The reaction constants involved in the different steps of the mechanism are calculated. The catalytic constant (K_c) was also calculated for the Ru(III) catalysed reaction at different temperatures. From the plots of log K_c versus 1/T, values of activation parameters with respect to the catalyst have been evaluated. The activation parameters with respect to the slow step of the mechanism are computed and discussed, and thermodynamic quantities are also determined. The active species of catalyst and oxidant have been identified.     

Kinetics of oxidation of SCN− by diperiodato cuprate(III) (DPC) in alkaline medium

The kinetics of oxidation of SCN⁻ by DPC has been investigated in alkaline medium. The reaction shows first-order dependence in [SCN⁻]. The pseudo-first-order rate constant (k_obs) changes differently under different [OH⁻]. At low [OH⁻], k_obs decreases when [OH⁻] increases, but when [OH⁻] increases to enough extent, k_obs increases with increase in [OH⁻]. Free radicals were observed in the process of reaction. A plausible mechanism involving Cu(HL)₂ and CuL as active substrates in the reaction has been proposed. The rate equations derived from the mechanism explain all the experimental phenomena satisfactorily. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The oxidation of naphthols by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III), at constant ionic strength, gave coupled products. The rate of the reaction was dependent on the first powers of the concentrations of substrate, oxidant, and alkali. The activation energies were 31.8 and 34.5 kJ/mol for α naphthol and β naphthol, respectively. The reaction pathway was via the formation of a radical intermediate, which was detected by electron spin resonance spectroscopy.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of 1,2-butanediol by argentate(III) complex in alkaline medium

The kinetics of oxidation of 1,2-butanediol by dihydroxyditellutoargentate(III) (DDA) is studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction rate shows first order dependence in DDA and 1 < n_ap < 2 order in 1,2-butanediol. It is found that the pseudo-first order rate constant k _obs increases with the increase in concentration of OH^? and decreases with the increase in concentration of TeO₄ ^2?. There is a negative salt effect; no free radical is detected. In view of this, the dihydroxymonotelluratoargentate(III) species is assumed to be the active species. A plausible mechanism involving a two-electron transfer is proposed and the rate equations derived from mechanism explains all experimental results. The activation parameters along with the rate constants of the rate-determining step are calculated.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of ethylenediamine and related compounds by diperiodatoargentate (III) ion

The oxidation of ethylenediamine by diperiodatoargentate (III) ion has been studied by stopped‐flow spectrophotometry. Kinetics of this reaction involves two steps. The first step is the complexation of silver (III) with the substrate and is over in about 10 ms. This is followed by a redox reaction in the second step that occurs intramolecularly from the substrate to the silver (III) center. The rate of reduction of silver (III) species by ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, and 1,2‐ethanediol were observed to be 1.2 × 10⁴, 1.1 × 10², and 0.14 dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹, respectively, at 20°C. The reaction rate shows an inverse dependence on [IO] and [OH⁻] in the low concentration range (≤1 × 10^‐3 mol dm⁻³). At higher [OH⁻] (>1 × 10⁻³ mol dm⁻³) the rate of reaction starts increasing and attains a limiting value at very high [OH⁻]. The rate of deamination of ethylenediamine is enhanced by its complexation with silver (III). The involvement of [Ag^III(H₂IO₆) (H₂O)₂] and [Ag^III(H₂IO₆) (OH)₂]²⁻ are suggested as the reactive silver (III) species kinetically in mild basic and basic conditions, respectively. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of β-alanine by dihydroxydiperiodatoargentate(III) in an alkaline medium

The kinetics of the oxidation of β-alanine by dihydroxydiperiodatoargentate(III) (DPA) in an alkaline medium was studied by spectrophotometry in a temperature range of 298.2 K-318.2 K. The reaction rate showed pseudo-first order dependence in the oxidant and 1 < n_ap < 2 in the reductant. A plausible mechanism involving a pre-equilibrium of adduct formation between the complex and reductant is proposed. The rate equations derived from the mechanism explain all experimental observations. The activation parameters along with the rate constants of the rate-determining step 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.

     

Kinetics and mechanism of the ruthenium(III) catalysed oxidation of reducing sugars by chloramine-T in alkaline medium

The kinetics of the ruthenium(III) catalysed oxidation of reducing sugars, viz. arabinose, xylose, galactose, glucose, fructose, lactose and maltose by chloramine-T have been studied in alkaline medium. The reactions exhibit a first order rate dependence with respect to: [substrate], [chloramine-T] and [OH⁻]. The rate is proportional to {k ^′ + k ^″[Ru^III]}, where k ^′ and k ^″ are rate constants for uncatalysed and catalysed path respectively. A suitable mechanism, consistent with the kinetic data, is proposed and discussed. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
