Abstract

The temporal degradation of the Belousov-Zhabotinskii substrates lactic acid, pyruvic acid, bromo- and dibromo pyruvic acid is investigated. The only final product of non-brominated substrates is acetic acid. From brominated educts only brominated acetic acids result. The concentrations of the stable products are determined as a function of time. The gross reactions are mainly based on simple consecutive first order reactions. For the pyruvic acid rate constants are determined.
