Abstract: | In aqueous acidic media containing an excess of Hbipy+–bipy buffer in the pH 3.5–4.5 range, the complex ion (bipy)2MnIII( -O)2MnIV(bipy)2]3+
(1) coexists in rapid equilibrium with its diaqua derivative MnIII,IV
2 ( -O)2(bipy)3(H2O)2]3+
(1a) (bipy = 2,2 -bipyridine). An excess of N2H5
+ quantitatively reduces the mixture to MnII, itself being oxidised to N2. The first order rate constant, k
o decreases with increasing C
bipy (C
bipy = Hbipy+] + bipy]) but increases with increasing N2H5
+] and H+]. The observed kinetic dependence can be explained in terms of a reaction between (1a) and N2H5
+. Replacement of solvent H2O with D2O decreases k
o substantially and the effect suggests simultaneous transfer of an electron and a proton in the rate-determining step. The relevance of this observation to the delayed oxidation of H2O in the hydrazine-treated photosystem II is discussed. |
