## Abstract The kinetics of the Os(VIII)βcatalyzed 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 a

β¦ Synopsis
The kinetics of oxidation of methyl cellulose polysaccharide as a natural polymer by alkaline potassium ferricyanide at a constant ionic strength of 1.0 mol dm -3 have been studied, spectrophotometrically. The experimental results showed complex kinetics where the pseudo first-order plots were found to be straight lines up to 60% of reaction completion, and then deviated from linearity. A first-order dependence in Fe(CN) 6
3-and fractional first-order kinetics with respect to the methyl cellulose concentration was observed. The oxidation reaction was found to be base catalyzed. Again, addition of Fe(CN) 6 4-product to the reaction mixture leads to a remarkable retardation of the oxidation rates. A kinetic evidence for the formation of 1:1 intermediate complex was revealed. The activation parameters have been evaluated and a tentative reaction mechanism in good consistency with the kinetic results is discussed.

with respect to the catalyst concentration is first. The reaction mechanism supposes the formation of a complex between the substrate and the catalyst active form . Subsequently, the complex thus formed slowly decomposes in the rate determining step to give carbonium ions and ruthenium hydride, sinc
## Abstract A kinetic study of the oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) in the presence of palladium (II) chloride is reported. The reaction was observed by measuring the disappearance of the potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) spectrophotometrically. The reaction is first or
The osmium(VII1)-catalyzed oxidation of D-proline and L(-)-methionine by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(II1) has been studied spectrophotometrically. The reactions follow kinetics different from those of the oxidation of many amino acids investigated earlier, being first order in hexacyanoferrate(II1) an
