Correlation analysis of reactivity in the oxidation of some organic diols by tripropylammonium fluorochromate in non-aqueous media
The kinetics of oxidation of some organic diols by tripropylammonium fluorochromate (TriPAFC) have been studied in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The main product of oxidation is the corresponding hydroxy aldehydes. The reaction is first order with respect to TriPAFC and exhibited Michaelis-Menten type k...

| Summary: | The kinetics of oxidation of some organic diols by tripropylammonium fluorochromate (TriPAFC) have been studied in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The main product of oxidation is the corresponding hydroxy aldehydes. The reaction is first order with respect to TriPAFC and exhibited Michaelis-Menten type kinetics with respect to organic diols. The reaction is catalyzed by hydrogen ions. The hydrogen ion dependence has the form: kobs = a + b[H+]. Various thermodynamic parameters for the oxidation have been reported and discussed along with the validity of isokinetic relationship. Oxidation of diols was studied in 18 different organic solvents. The rate data are showing satisfactory correlation with Kamlet–Taft solvotochromic parameters (α, β and π∗). A suitable mechanism of oxidation has been proposed. |
