Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of Pyridoxine by Sodium N-Chlorobenzenesulfonamidate

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/bcsj.57.1439

Oxidation of pyridoxine (PRX) by chloramine-B (CAB) in HCl medium at 313 K shows first order dependence each on oxidant, substrate and Cl^- ion concentrations, but is independent of +>.A first-order retardation of rate is observed by the addition of reaction product, benzenesulfonamide.Suitable mechanism is proposed.
