| Abstract: | Summary The kinetics of the RuIII-catalyzed oxidation of the hydroxy acids; lactic, tartaric, malic and citric acids byN-bromosuccinimide in HClO4 and in the presence of Hg(OAc)2 have been studied. The reactions exhibit a first order rate dependence with respect to the oxidant and zeroth order rate dependence with respect to substrate. The rate is retarded by H+], accelerated at law RuIII concentrations but independent of RuIII] at higher RuIII concentrations. A mechanism consistent with the observed kinetic data is proposed. |
