The kinetics of oxidation of N, N-dimethyl-N'-(pyridin-2-yl) formamidine (Py-F) by cerium(IV) was studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous perchloric acid solutions at a constant ionic strength of 1.0 mol dm-3 and at 20°C. The reaction showed first order dependence with respect to [Ce(IV)] and less than unit order with respect to [Py-F]. The reaction exhibited negative fractional-first order kinetics with respect to [H + ]. The rate of reaction was not significantly affected by variation of either ionic strength or dielectric constant of the reaction medium. Addition of cerium(III) product did not affect the reaction rate. A suitable mechanistic scheme for the oxidation reaction has been proposed. The final oxidation products were identified as 2-aminopyridine, dimethylamine and carbon dioxide. The activation parameters have been evaluated and discussed. The rate law associated with the reaction mechanism was derived.

In this work, three different types of surfactants DTAC, C12H25N (CH3)3Cl−, TX-100, C34H62O11 for x = 10) and AOT-100, C20H37O7NaS) with corrosion restraint were utilized as corrosion inhibitors for 1037 CS in 0.5 M HCl.

In aqueous alkaline medium, the kinetics of oxidation of methylaminopyrazole formamidine (MAPF) by hexacyanoferrate(III) (HCF)has been studied spectrophotometrically under the conditions, MAPF >> HCF at a constant ionic strength of 0.1 mol dm-3 and at 25°C. The reaction showed first order dependence on [HCF] while it exhibited fractional-first order kinetics with respect to [MAPF] and [OH-]. The oxidation rate increased with increasing ionic strength and dielectric constant of the reaction medium. Addition of small amounts of some divalent transition metal ions accelerates the oxidation rate and the order of catalytic efficiency was: Cu(II) > Ni(II) > Zn(II) > Co(II) > Cd(II). The suggested mechanism involves formation of a 1: 1 intermediate complex between HCF and the deprotonated MAPF species in a pre-equilibrium step. The final oxidation products were identified as methylaminopyrazole, dimethylamine and carbon dioxide. The appropriate rate law was deduced. The reaction constants involved in the mechanism were evaluated. The activation and thermodynamic parameters were determined and discussed.
