Résumé
The vanadate anion in the presence of pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA) was found to effectively catalyze the oxidation of isopropanol to acetone with hydrogen peroxide. The electronic spectra of solutions and the kinetics of oxidation were studied. The conclusion was drawn that the rate-determining stage of the reaction was the decomposition of the vanadium(V) diperoxo complex with PCA, and the particle that induced the oxidation of isopropanol was the hydroxyl radical. Supposedly, the HO center dot radical detached a hydrogen atom from isopropanol, and the Me2C center dot(OH) radical formed reacted with HOO center dot to produce acetone and hydrogen peroxide. The electronic spectra of solutions in isopropanol and acetonitrile and the dependences of the initial rates of isopropanol oxidation without a solvent and cyclohexane oxidation in acetonitrile on the initial concentration of hydrogen peroxide were compared. The conclusion was drawn that hydroxyl radicals appeared in the oxidation of alkanes in acetonitrile in the decomposition of the vanadium diperoxo complex rather than the monoperoxo derivative, as was suggested by us earlier.
