✦ Synopsis


The kinetic study of alkaline hydrolysis of 5,5-diethyl barbituric acid has been carried out at various [OH] and different temperatures ranging from 85-95°C. The reaction follows a n irreversible first-order consecutive reaction path of the type A *lobs B % X under pseudo-first-order kinetic conditions. A, B, and X represent for 5, 5-diethyl barbituric acid, diethyl malonuric acid, and ammonia, respectively. The pH-rate profiles obtained at three different temperatures reveal distkct phases which are attributed to a change in rate-determining step with change in [OH]. On the basis of the observed data, a possible mechanism has been discussed.
