The reactivity of the base induced cyclodimerization of 1-(6-arylpyridazin-3-yl)-3-oxidopyridinium chlorides in a pericyclic process have been investigated kinetically at λ 380 nm. The reaction was found to be second order with respect to the liberated betaine and zero order with respect to the base. On the other hand dedimerization (monomer formation) was found to be first order. It was shown that dimerization is favoured at low temperature, whereas dedimerization process is favoured at relatively high temperature (ca 70 °C). Solvent effects on the reaction rate have been found to follow the order ethanol > chloroform ≈ 1,2-dichloroethane. Complete dissociation was accomplished only in 1,2-dichloroethane at ca 70 °C. The thermodynamic activation parameters have been calculated by a standard method. Thus, ∆G# has been found to be independent on substituents and solvents. The high negative values of ∆S# supports the cyclic transition state which is in favour with the concerted mechanism. MO calculations using SCF-PPP approximation method indicated low HOMO-LUMO energy gap of the investigated betaines.

Kinetics of the oxidation of 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol with tetraalkylammonium permanganates have been investigated as function of temperature. The studied reactions are partly autocatalytic, colloidal manganese dioxide as one of the reaction products has been identified as the autocatalyst.A computerized iterative procedure has been used in order to obtained the rate constants of both non-catalytic and catalytic reaction steps together with the thermodynamic activation parameters.
