Mechanistic studies of Ru(III) catalyzed oxidation of antibiotic drug chloramphenicol by chloramine –T in HClO4 medium

چکیده
The kinetics of oxidation of chloramphenicol by chloramine-T has been investigated over the temperature range of 308-328 K. The reaction has been found to proceed quantitatively over a wide range of experimental conditions. Oxidation of antibiotic involves four electron changes and the product of oxidation has been identified. Oxidation of antibiotic exhibits first order kinetics w.r.t [CAT]. The rate of reaction was found to be independent of the concentration of the substrate. The fractional order dependence of rate on [H] suggests complex formation b/w CAT and [H]. The rate of reaction was found to be first order w.r.t. Ru(III) also. Thermodynamic parameters were evaluated. A suitable reaction scheme is proposed and appropriate rate law is derived to account for the observed kinetic data.

Atropine sulfate monohydrate (ASM) is an anticholinergic drug, having a wide spectrum of activity. Hence, the kinetics of oxidation of ASM by diperiodatocuperate (DPC) in the presence of micro (10-6) amounts of Ru(III) catalyst has been investigated spectrophotometrically in aqueous alkaline medium at I = 0.50 mol dm-3. The reaction between DPC and ASM exhibits 1:2 stoichiometry (ASM:DPC) i. e....
