In this study, we attempted to model the response of this kind of permanganate ISE and employed this ISE to À À analyze the rapid MnO4 /H2O2 reaction. This response is attributed to H2O2 oxidation with MnO4 that is released from the inner solution to the membrane surface layer. The results show that the experimental data can be fitted well to the proposed model that is elucidated mathematically from the viewpoint of chemical kinetics. The second-order rate constant is determined at a near neutral pH and is in agreement with the acid dissociation law to provide the specific value of 370 MÀ1 sÀ1. The kinetic mechanism was then investigated by performing DFT calculations. Via analysis of the Mn–O bond length and the HOMO orbital, it has been found that the studied redox system functions similarly as the so- called hydrogen abstraction mechanism with an energy barrier of 24.5 kcal molÀ1. This study is À considered to be the first report on the simulation of MnO4 attack at the O–H bond.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Phase transfer catalysis reactions are reactions where the reactants are soluble in different solvents. The phase transfer catalyst facilitates the transfer of a reactant from one phase to another, hence enabling the reaction. This can be explained electrochemically: By partitioning between the phases, the catalyst establishes a potential difference across the interface, which drives the transfer of reagent into the other phase (usually an inorganic anion is being transferred into the organic phase), or controls the reaction at the interface. A similar potential difference can also be applied with electrochemical instrumentation and the reactions can be investigated in electrochemical systems. Electrochemistry at ITIES (Interface between Two Immiscible Electrolyte Solutions) provides a fast, convenient and simple way of investigating the electrochemistry of a synthetic phase transfer reaction. The organic syntheses were also carried out to confirm the electrochemical results.

Kinetics of ruthenium (III) catalyzed oxidation of atenolol by permanganate in alkaline medium at constant ionic strength of 0×30 mol dm3 has been studied spectrophotometrically using a rapid kinetic accessory. Reaction between permanganate and atenolol in alkaline medium exhibits 1 : 8 stoichiometry (atenolol : KMnO4). The reaction shows first-order dependence on [permanganate] and [ruthenium (III)] and apparently less than unit order on both atenolol and alkali concentrations. Reaction rate decreases with increase in ionic strength and increases with decreasing dielectric constant of the medium. Initial addition of reaction products does not affect the rate significantly. A mechanism involving the formation of a complex between catalyst and substrate has been proposed. The active species of ruthenium (III) is 2+ understood as [Ru(H2O)5OH] . The reaction constants involved in the different steps of mechanism are calculated. Activation parameters with respect to the slow step of the mechanism are computed and dis- cussed and thermodynamic quantities are also calculated. Keywords.

The reaction between permanganate and L-Proline in alkaline medium exhibits 2:1 stoichiometry (KMnO4: L-Proline). The reaction shows first order dependence on [permanganate] and [ruthenium(III)] and apparent less than unit order dependence each in L-Proline and alkali concentrations. Reaction rate increases with increase in ionic strength and decrease in solvent polarity of the medium. Initial addition of reaction products did not affect the rate significantly. A mechanism involving the formation of a complex between catalyst and substrate has been proposed. The activation parameters were computed with respect to the slow step of the mechanism and discussed. Key words: Kinetics; Potassium permanganate Ruthenium; Oxidation; L-proline Introduction Potassium permanganate is widely used as an oxidising agent in synthetic as well as in analytical chemistry and also as a disinfectant. The reactions with permanganate are governed by pH of the medium.

Current density-potential studies were conducted varying the parameters of maleic acid concentration and pH. The faradaic efficiency of the oxidation of maleic acid to yield co 2 was determined. The effect of temperature on current density was also studied to determine the activation energy for the reaction. The oxidation of maleic acid occurred only in acidic solutions. The faradaic efficiency was found to be ap­ proximately 97 ± 5 per cent. A linear Tafel region was found which had a slope of 145 - 170 millivolts <~ 2.3RT/aF).

Batch experiments show that the interaction between MnO4 , and sediment solids will not only consume the reactant, but also can release toxic metals into ground water. Various column and flow tank experiments were conducted to examine the capacity and efficiency of the oxidation scheme. Oxidation was capable of - destroying chlorinated ethylenes in aqueous phase. MnO4 oxidation performs better in removal of residual DNAPL than pooled DNAPL. In zones of high NAPL saturation, Mn oxide precipitates causing pore plugging and permeability reduction. These changes potentially could cause the remedial action to fail. In an effort to mitigate the precipitation, experiments have been carried out to investigate possibilities of delaying the formation of colloidal Mn oxide and to remove the precipitates once formed.
