Spectroscopic investigation and oxidation of the anticholinergic drug atropine sulfate monohydrate by hexacyanoferrate(III) in aqueous alkaline media: a mechanistic approach

Abstract: Abstract:The oxidation of the anticholinergic drug atropine sulfate monohydrate by hexacyanoferrate(III) in aqueous alkaline media was investigated spectrophotometrically by monitoring the decrease in absorbance of hexacyanoferrate(III) (HCF(III)). Oxidation products were identified. The oxidation mechanism was proposed from kinetic studies. The reaction constants involved in the different steps of the mechanism were calculated. The effects of added products, ionic strength, and dielectric constant of the reac… Show more

“…Chromium(VI) is known to be mutagenic and carcinogenic, hence, posing a serious environmental hazard [15]. It is used for many applications [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Consequently, it is of crucial importance gaining as much information as possible regarding its various forms and their interaction with organic substrates.…”

“…Although some work on the oxidation of atropine by various oxidants has been performed [21][22][23][24][25], there is a lack of literature on the kinetics of oxidation of this drug by cerium(IV) in the absence or presence of a catalyst. This observation prompted us to investigate the title reaction.…”
