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

β¦ Synopsis
The kinetics of the oxidation of number of aryl methyl, alkyl phenyl, dialkyl and diphenyl sulphides by permanganate ion to yield the sulphoxides, have been studied. The reaction is first order with respect to the sulphide and permanganate and is independent of hydrogen ion concentration. The reaction exhibited negative polar reaction constants and a small degree of steric hindrance. The lack of solvent isotope effect and the observed solvent effect ( m = 0.39 for MeSPh) are explained by an electrophilic attack of permanganate-oxygen on the sulphide yielding a polar transition state. A moderate anchimeric assistance was observed in the oxidation of o-COOMe and @.ZOOH substituted methyl phenyl sulphide. A mechanism involving a one-step electrophilic oxygen transfer from permanganate ion to the sulphide and a polar product-like transition state, has been proposed.

The oxidation of selenium(IV) by permanganate has been studied kinetically in acid, neutral and alkaline media. The reaction exhibits unit-order dependence on selenium(IV) and permanganate in all the three media. Manganese(VI) retards the reaction in alkaline medium. The rate-limiting step is the sa
