C. Karunakaran et B. Muthukumaran, KINETIC EVIDENCE FOR PEROXO COMPLEX-FORMATION IN PERBORATE OR HYDROGEN-PEROXIDE OXIDATION OF HEXACYANOFERRATE(II), Polish Journal of Chemistry, 70(1), 1996, pp. 79-82
The oxidation of hexacyanoferrate(II) by perborate or hydrogen peroxid
e in the pH range 4.7-7.0 is first order in hexacyanoferrate and is ac
id catalyzed. The oxidation exhibits Michaelis-Menten dependence oil p
erborate or hydrogen peroxide. Kinetic results provide evidence for co
mplex formation between hydrogen peroxide and HFe(CN)(6)(3-).
