Abstract
Kinetic data on the rates of quinolinium dichromate oxidation of glyoxal and glutaraldehyde are determined and discussed with reference to aldehyde hydration equilibria. The effect of variations in solvent composition and temperature are studied. The solvent effect is analyzed. Kinetic results support a pathway via a rate-determining oxidative decomposition of a chromate ester of an aldehyde hydrate. A cyclic transition state is suggested; being a Huckel-type system (4n + 2), this is an allowed process.
