Abstract

Chromic acid oxidation of malonic acid in aqueous media has been investigated spectrophotometrically at 303 K. The product glyoxylic acid has been characterized by 13C-NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Three representative N-heteroaromatic nitrogen base promoters, 2-picolinic acid, 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and 1,10-phenanthroline, in combination with the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) enhanced the rate of the oxidation reaction compared to the unpromoted reaction. 2,2′-Bipyridine produced the maximum rate enhancement of the three promoters used. The mechanism of the reaction has been proposed with the help of kinetic results and spectroscopic studies. The observed net enhancement of rate effects has been explained by considering the hydrophobic and electrostatic interaction between the surfactants and reactants. The SDS and bpy combination is suitable for malonic acid oxidation.
