Abstract
A simple, convenient and accurate method for the kinetic study of photochemical oxidation of glucose by chloramine-T in acidic medium is described. The kinetic investigation shows the first order dependence of reaction rate on chloramine-T. With excess concentration of other reactants the reaction rate follows fractional order kinetics with respect to substrate. The reaction is catalyzed by H+ ions as well. A small salt effect and increase in reaction rate with increasing the intensity of light source is also observed. Addition of p-toluene sulphonamide retards the reaction rate. A suitable mechanism in agreement with observed kinetics has been proposed
