Using chronoamperometric measurements at pH 12 it is shown that the oxidation mechanism of niazid adsorbed on the mercury electrode changes with respect to the mechanism reported in the literature for the electrooxidation of the molecules reaching the electrode by diffusion. A compact monolayer of niazid molecules is formed on the electrode surface, being the hydrazide oxidized through a two-electron process. The oxidation product is not able to dissociate a H+ ion, and the oxidation process does not proceeds beyond. For isoniazid the monolayer never becomes compact.

A polarographic study of the oxidation mechanism of L-ascorbic acid and of the reduction mechanism of dehydro-L-ascorbic acid was carried out in an acid medium.For L-ascorbic acid, the oxidation process involves a two electron transfer and obeys the overall reaction[Formula: see text]The polarographic curve shows that the limiting current is governed by diffusion. On the rising portion of the wave, the two electron oxidation process consists of two consecutive one electron transfers, the second being the rate determining step (rds). The reaction orders, together with the Tafel slopes, were calculated.The reduction of dehydro-L-ascorbic acid at the limiting current is kinetically controlled and involves a two electron transfer. The reaction kinetic pathways were studied and the reaction orders and Tafel slope were calculated. It is deduced that, for low overvoltages, the second one electron transfer is the rate determining step.

Electrochemical investigation of 2,5-dihydroxyanisole (2,5-DHA) has been carried out in aqueous solutions in pH range 2-11 on hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The oxidation process in pH range 2-6 is a quasi-reversible electrode reaction which involves the transfer of two electrons and two protons. By use of semi-integration a dependence of the heterogeneous rate constant on the potential has been appreciated. Thus, the variation of peak current with pH changes can be explained. In more basic solutions the electrooxidation is complicated by subsequent chemical reactions as indicated from the calculated voltammetric and chronoamperometric parameters.

Oxidation of Trypan Blue with cerium(IV) ion in acid medium gives arenediazonium cation similar to the oxidation product of N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene. Quantitative evaluation of the arenediazonium salt formed has been carried out spectrophotometrically after previous C-azo coupling with 2-naphthol.

The acceleration effect of p-toluidine on the electroreduction of Zn(II) on the mercury electrode surface in binary mixtures water-methanol and water-dimethylformamide is discussed. The obtained apparent and true forward rate constants of Zn(II) reduction indicate that the rate constant of the first electron transfer increases in the presence of p-toluidine. The acceleration effect may probably be accounted for by the concept of the formation on the mercury electrode an activated complex, presumably composed of p-toluidine and solvent molecules.

The oxidation mechanism of diethyl ethers by NO2was carried out using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31+G (d, p) level. The oxidation process of ether follows four steps. First, the diethyl ether reacts with NO2to produce HNO2and diethyl ether radical with an energy barrier of 20.62 kcal ⋅ mol-1. Then, the diethyl ether radical formed in the first step directly combines with NO2to form CH3CH ( ONO ) OCH2CH3. In the third step, the CH3CH ( ONO ) OCH2CH3was further decomposed into the CH3CH2ONO and CH3CHO with a moderately high energy barrier of 32.87 kcal ⋅ mol-1. Finally, the CH3CH2ONO continues to react with NO2to yield CH3CHO , HNO2and NO with an energy barrier of 28.13 kcal ⋅ mol-1. The calculated oxidation mechanism agrees well with Nishiguchi and Okamoto's experiment and proposal.

ABSTRACTThe surface-front oxidation mechanism of iron was investigated by time-resolved, glancingangle Fe K-edge fluorescence EXAFS measurements at various oxidation temperatures of 200-700 C. The glancing angle was chosen according to the depth of the oxide layer, roughly 1500-2000A. The oxidation behavior under rapid heating(up to 600°C within 10 minutes) was compared with the slowly heated oxidation process using the Quick-EXAFS measurements. In the slowly heated process, Fe3O4 was the dominating phase at a relatively low temperature (300-400 C) initially. However, at a relatively high temperature (above 600°C), the Fe2O3 and FeO crystalline phases are gradually enriched as the successive oxidation process involving intrusive oxygen proceeded. Remarkably under a prolonged heat treatment above 600°C, the stable FeO phase that exists in a deep-lying interface structure and Fe2O3 phase eventually dominates the thick front-surface structure. In a quickly heated process, however, Fe3O4 phase is less dominating, which is contradictory to the commonly accepted oxidation models. The EXAFS results are discussed in conjunction with the x-ray diffraction features under the same heat treatment conditions.

The cyclic oxidation behavior of Co-10Cr-5Al alloys with and without 0.3 at% Y doped in atmosphere at 800oC was investigated. The addition of 0.3 at.% Y increased the oxidation rate of the alloy and changed the oxidation mechanism. The scales grown the alloys with and without Y were both composed of an outer Co2O3layer and an inner complex layer of Al2O3, Co2O3and Cr2O3, except that the addition of 0.3 at% Y enhanced the adhesion of the scale. 0.3 at% Y agglomerated in local zone which accelerated the oxidation rate and was not conductive to the oxidation process of the Co-10Cr-5Al alloy.
