Abstract
Mechanistic studies on the oxidation of indole [IND] by HSO in aqueous CH~3~CN medium (80:20 v/v) have been carried out, and the reaction is characterized by the rate law βd[HSO]/dt = k[IND][HSO]HSO and SO are probably the respective electrophiles in acidic and basic mediums. Nucleophilic attack of the ethylenic bond on the persulfate oxygen is envisaged to explain the reactivity. The reaction fails to initiate polymerization, and a radical mechanism is ruled out. Thermodynamic parameters very much suggest a bimolecular process. No significant catalytic activity is observed for the reaction system in the presence of Ag^+^, Cu^2+^, and heteroaromatic Nβbases.

The kinetics of the permanganate-hypophosphite redox reaction has been studied over a wide range of pH by using a stopped-flow technique. It has been found that the reaction leads to the formation of phosphite and orthophosphate, and that the molar ratio of the final products depends on pH. The prop
Kinetics of oxidation of indigo carmine (IC) by sodium hypohalites, NaOX (X = C1 or Br), in alkaline buffer of pH 9-11 has been studied spectrophotometrically at A = 610 nm. The experimental rate law obtained is - ## d[IC]/dt = k[OX-][IC][OH-1" where z < 1. Variation of ionic strength or dielectr
