CHLORINATION OF N-BENZOYL VALINE BY SODIUM N-CHLORO-PARA-TOLUENE SULFONYL AMIDE (CAT) HYDROCHLORIC ACIDIC: A KINETIC AND MECHANISM STUDY

Abstract

The mechanism of N-benzoyl valine oxidation by chloramine-T in hydrochloric acid medium at temperatures ranging from 308 to 328 K is the subject of this research. The findings of the experiment showed that the medium's ionic strength had an influence, as the affixing of P-toluene sulphone amide slightly retarded the reaction, and that the reaction was first order with regard to the substrate and chloramine-T. Based on kinetic investigations, the reaction ratio 1:1 is suggested.
