Pv. Lalitha et al., STUDY OF BRIGGS-RAUSCHER OSCILLATORY REACTION IN AQUEOUS-ACETONITRILEMIXED MEDIUM, Collection of Czechoslovak Chemical Communications, 59(7), 1994, pp. 1596-1605
The oscillatory behaviour of two new substrates namely, 2-thenoyltrifl
uoroacetone and cyanoacetic acid in the Briggs-Rauscher (B-R) system w
as studied in detail employing a mixed medium: aqueous-acetonitrile. T
he effect of acetonitrile concentration on the oscillatory behaviour i
s investigated. It is found that employing the aqueous-organic mixed m
edia is highly beneficial in the oscillatory study, enabling the study
of water-insoluble substances.
