Abstract
The kinetics of ruthenium(VIII) catalysed oxidation of methyl
glycol by ceric perchlorate in perchloric acid medium have been
studied. The reaction exhibits zero-order kinetics in Ce(IV) and first
order rate dependence with respect to each of methyl glycol and
Ru(VIII). Negligible effect of [H+] and ionic strength of the medium
has been observed. A suitable mechanism, consistent with the
observed kinetic data, is proposed.
