Rate Constants for Oxidation Reactions by Radical Cations from Methyl Iodide

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/j100312a026

Radical cations from methyl iodide, CH3I^.+, and are shown to be excellent oxidants with a one-electron redox potential presumably >/= +2 V.Absolute rate constants in the order of 1E9 M^-1s^-1 have been determined for their reactions with various organic sulfides, disulfides thiols, phenothiazines, and inorganic metal and halide ions.A similarly high reactivity has also been found for the hydroxyl radical adduct to methyl iodide, CH3I(OH)^..The results are discussed in view of electronic and steric structure of these oxidizing radical species and the substrates to be oxidized.
