Abstract
The kinetics of oxidation of aldoses, namely xylose, arabinose, galactose and glucose, by CeIV have been studied in HClO4 + H2SO4 medium and in the presence of PdII. The reactions exhibit a first order rate dependence with respect to oxidant. The rate is inversely dependent on the [HSOinf4sup−]∶[H+] ratio. The order of reaction with respect to aldose decreases at higher [aldose]. Due to the formation of a complex between CeIV and PdII, a retarding effect of [PdII] on the rate of disappearance of [CeIV] has been observed. A mechanism consistent with the observed kinetic data is proposed.
