Abstract
The kinetics and mechanism of picolinic acid (PA)- catalysed oxidation of formic acid have been studied in aqueous HClO4 media under the experimental conditions, 103[Cr(VI)]T = 0.67-2.67 mol dm-3, [PA]T = 0.01-0.12 mol dm-3, [HCO2H]T = 0.1-0.8 mol dm-3, [H+] = 0.35-1.5 mol dm-3,1 = 1.5 mol dm-3 in the temperature range 25-40° C. The kinetic parameters of the catalysed path have been compared with those of the relatively slower uncatalysed path which proceed parallelly with the catalysed path. In the catalysed path, Cr(VI)-PA cyclic complex formed at the pre-equilibrium step receives a nucleophilic attack at the Cr(VI) centre by the substrate leading to a ternary complex with the release of a proton in a reversible path. Then the ternary complex experiences the redox decomposition at the rate-determining step giving rise to Cr(IV)-PA complex and CO2. Then the Cr(IV)-PA complex reacts faster ultimately giving rise to Cr(III)-PA complex. The anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) catalyses both the uncatalysed and catalysed paths in aqueous HClO4 media while the cationic surfactant cetyl pyridinium chloride (CPC) inhibits the reactions in aqueous H2SO4 media. In the presence of the surfactants, applicability of the Piszkiewicz model has been tested for the ΡΑ-catalysed path. Micellar effects are in conformity with the proposed mechanism.
