Abstract:The kinetics of oxidation of diaquadichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)chromium(III) complex, [Cr III (phen)(H 2 O) 2 Cl 2 ] + , by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) is biphasic.The first faster step involves the oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(IV). The second slower step is due to the oxidation of Cr(IV) to Cr(V). The reaction product is isolated and characterized by electron spin resonance (ESR), IR, and elemental analysis. The chromium(V) product is consistent with the formula [Cr V (phen)Cl 2 (O)]Br. The rate constants k f and… Show more
