Sayyed Hussain*, Katapalle Ramdas, Salim Sayyed and Mazhar Farooqui
ABSTRACT
The Kinetic of oxidation of Atenolol by potassium permanganate has been studied in the presence of acidic medium. The reaction is first order with respect to KMnO4 as well as Atenolol concentration. The reaction rate has been determined at different temperature and different thermodynamic parameters have been calculated which shows that the reaction rate increase with increase in temperature. With increase in the concentration of acid the reaction rate increases. A suitable mechanism has been proposed.
Keywords: Kinetics, Mechanism, Oxidation, Atenolol, potassium permanganate, thermodynamic parameters, etc.
