On the mechanism of the cooxidation of pentan-1-ol with oxalic acid by dichromates and halochromates of heterocyclic bases

摘要

The cooxidations of pentan-1-ol with oxalic acid by twelve dichromates,fluorochromates,chlorochromates and bromochromate of heterocyclic bases exhibit identical kinetic behaviour;first order each with respect to the chromium(VI) reagents,alcohol and oxalic acid,and are acid catalyzed.The Arrhenius lines converge in a narrow range of temperature suggesting that the mechanisms of cooxidations by the twelve chromium(VI) reagents do not differ significantly.
