Kinetics and mechanistic aspects of oxidation of Vanillin Schiff bases (obtained from Vanillin and p-substituted anilines) by bromate in acid medium has been studied at 313 ?K. The reaction exhibited first order in [bromate] and less than unity order each in [Vanillin Schiff base] and [acid]. The increase in the rate of reaction with decrease in dielectric constant of the medium is observed with all the studied substrates. The reaction failed to induce the polymerization of acrylonitrile. Electron withdrawing substituents in the aniline ring moiety of Vanillin Schiff base accelerate the rate of oxidation to a large extent and electron releasing substituents retard the rate. The order of reactivity is found to be p-nitro ?> ?p-bromo ?> ?p-chloro ?> ?–H ?> ?p-fluoro ?> ?p-methyl ?> ?p-methoxy ?> ?p-ethoxy and the sensitivity of the substrates towards the reaction rate is further supported by the semi-empirical calculation of electronic properties and global descriptors of the substrates (Vanillin Schiff bases) with different substituents in the aniline ring moiety. The observed trend in the reactivity of the substrates was correlated with the calculated descriptors like electronegativity, chemical potential, electrophilicity index, chemical hardness and frontier molecular orbitals. The linear free-energy relationship is characterized by a straight line in the Hammett's plot of log k versus σ. The ρ values are positive and increase with increase in temperature. From the Exner and Arrhenius plots, the isokinetic relationship is discussed. Oxidation products identified are p-substituted azobenzene and vanillic acid. Based on the experimental observations, a plausible mechanism is proposed and rate law is derived.

In this study, magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4@SbFx from the immobilization of SbF3 on magnetite were synthesized. The prepared nanocomposite system was then characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. Next, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4@SbFx MNPs was highlighted by one-pot reductive-coupling of aromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding azoarene materials with NaBH4. The reactions were carried out in refluxing EtOH within 6-25 min to afford the products in high yields. The reusability of the Sb-magnetite system was also studied for 6 consecutive cycles without significant loss of catalytic activity. This synthetic protocol provided several advantages in terms of introducing a novel catalytic system based on antimony species for direct and gram-scale preparation of azoarenes from nitroarenes, low loading of the nanocatalyst, mild reaction conditions, using ethanol as a green and economic solvent and high yield of the products.

Azobenzenes are extensively used to dye textiles and leather and by tuning the substituent in the ring, vivid colours are obtained. Here, we report preparation of a large number of azobenzenes in good yield from commercially available anilines using sodium perborate (SPB) and catalytic amount of Na2MoO4 under mild conditions. Glacial acetic acid is the solvent of choice and the aniline to azobenzene conversion is zero, first and first orders with respect to SPB, Na2MoO4 and aniline, respectively. Based on the kinetic orders, UV–visible spectra and cyclic voltammograms, the conversion mechanism has been suggested. The reaction rates of about 50 anilines at 20–50?°C and their energy and entropy of activation conform to the isokinetic or Exner relationship and compensation effect, respectively. However, the reaction rates, deduced by the so far adopted method, fail to comply with the Hammett correlation. The specific reaction rates of molecular anilines, obtained through a modified calculation, conform to the Hammett relationship. Thus, this work presents a convenient inexpensive non-hazardous method of preparation of a larger number of azobenzenes, and shows the requirement of modification in obtaining the true reaction rates of anilines in acetic acid and the validity of Hammett relationship in the conversion process, indicating operation of a common mechanism.

The aerobic oxidative coupling of aniline is an effective process for producing aromatic azo compounds, which are widely used in the organic chemical industry. The development of heterogeneous catalysts for this reaction would be advantageous because of their recyclability and convenience in posttreatment. In this work, one-dimensional Mn(OH) 2 nanostructure with various shapes were synthesized through the adjustment of various surfactants. The as-synthesized Mn(OH) 2 nanobelts and nanowires showed superior catalytic activity in the activation of oxygen and aniline. Aromatic azo compounds with a variety of substituents were produced through the coupling of the corresponding anilines without additives under ambient conditions.

The use of water as a donor for hydrogen suitable for the reduction of several important classes of organic compounds is described. It is found that the reductive water splitting can be promoted by several metalloids among which silicon shows the best efficiency. The developed methodologies were applied for the reduction of nitro compounds, N-oxides, sulfoxides, alkenes, alkynes, hydrodehalogenation as well as for the gram-scale synthesis of several substrates of industrial importance.

, p. 2851 - 2855 (2015/12/12)
The kinetics of oxidation of aromatic anils in aniline moiety by meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) has been studied in aqueous acitic medium. The order of reaction was found to be second order with respect to aromatic anil and first order with respect to m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The increase of [H+] in this oxidation retards the rate of reaction. The effects of substituents on the oxidation rate were studied with 3 meta- and 5 para-substituted anils at five different temperatures. Thermodynamic parameters for the oxidation have been determined and discussed. meta-Chloroperbenzoic acid oxidation with substituted anils fulfills the isokinetic relationship and Exner relationship but not to any of the linear free energy relationships. The deviation of Hammett plot was noted and a concave downward curve was obtained for the anils with substituents in aniline moiety.

, p. 739 - 744 (2014/06/09)
The kinetics of oxidation of 9 meta- and 15 para- substituted aromatic anils by sodium perborate were investigated in aqueous acetic acid medium. The reaction was second order with respect to aromatic anil and first order with respect to the sodium perborate. The increase of [H+] in this oxidation retards the rate of the reaction. The observed rate constant for the substituents were plotted against the Hammett constant, δ and a non-linear concave downward curve was obtained for the anils with substituents in the aniline moiety. The observed break in the log kobs versus δwas attributed to the transition state whereas the non-linear concave upward curve was observed for the substituents in the benzaldehyde moiety and a non-linear concave upward curve was observed for the substituents in the combination of aniline and benzaldehyde moiety. The electron withdrawing substituents fall on one side of the curve, having a negative ρvalue and the electron releasing substituents fall on the other side, with a positive ρvalue and a suitable mechanism was proposed.

Kinetic investigation of oxidation of aromatic anils by potassium peroxymonosulfate in aqueous acidic medium
Venkatesh,Karunakaran
, p. 542 - 550 (2013/07/26)
The kinetics of oxidation of aromatic anils to benzaldehyde and azobenzene by potassium peroxymonosulfate has been studied in aqueous acetic acid medium. The low dielectric constant of the medium facilitates the reactivity. It has been found that the variation in the ionic strength of the reaction has a negligible effect on the rate. Similarly, polymerization was not observed when acrylonitrile was added to the reaction mixture. This observation rules out the formation of any free radical in the reaction. The added Mn(II) increases the rate of the reaction, which indicates the involvement of two-electron transfer. Highly negative ΔS# values indicate a structured transition state. The deviation of the Hammett plot was noted, and a concave downward curve was obtained for the anils with substituents in the aniline moiety. The observed break in the log kobs versus σ is attributed to the transition state whereas the concave upward curve was observed for the substituents in the benzaldehyde moiety and in the combination of aniline and benzaldehyde moieties, and a suitable mechanism was proposed.

Studies are reported which describes the effectiveness of triethylammonium formate in the presence of magnesium for the efficient intermolecular pinacol coupling using MeOH as solvent, Various aromatic carbonyls underwent smooth reductive coupling to give the corresponding I ,2-diols. A series of azo compounds were obtained by the reductive coupling of nitroaromatics while azo compounds were reduced to the corresponding hydrazoarenes by this system. There was no adverse effect on the other reducible and hydrogenolysable groups such as ether linkage, hydroxy and halogens. The reactions are clean, high yielding and inexpensive. All the reactions proceeded smoothly at ambient temperature.
