Kinetics of oxidation of some substituted aldonitrones by chloramine-B
(sodium N-chlorobenzene sulphonamide) in the presence of perchloric a
cid, resulting in the formation of corresponding benzaldehyde and nitr
osobenzene has been studied. The reaction is first order in [CAB](0),
[nitrone](0) and fractional order in [HClO4](0). Addition of benzenesu
lphonamide [BSA] retards the oxidation. Variation in ionic strength, d
ielectric constant of the medium and addition of [Cl-] ion does not al
ter the reaction rate. The solvent isotope effect has been studied by
using heavy-water. The reaction has been studied at different temperat
ures and a mechanism confirming to the kinetic observations is suggest
