MECHANISTIC & SPECTRAL INVESTIGATION OF OXIDATION OF DIETHYL MALONATE BY MORPHOLINIUM CHLOROCHROMATE
Takale Surendra* and Gulam Farooq Mustafa
ABSTRACT
Morpholinium chlorochromate (MCC) is easily synthesized by
reacting morpholine to an aqueous solution of CrO3 and HCl. The
kinetics of oxidation of diethyl malonate by morpholinium
chlorochromate has been Studied Spectrophotometrically in aqueous
acetic acid medium. The reaction were studied in the temperature
range 292-318K.The reaction is first order with respect to both diethyl
malonate and morpholinium chlorochromate. The activation
parameters for the slow step were computed and calculated. Effect of
ionic strength and dielectric constant of medium has also been
reported. A suitable mechanism has been proposed.
Keywords: Diethyl Malonate, Morpholinium Chlorochromate, Oxidation, Kinetics.
