Abstract
The kinetics of the oxidation of 2-propanol by ruthenium tetroxide in aqueous perchloric acid solutions have been investigated. The results indicate that the two mechanisms pertain; at moderate acidities (1–6.5 M HClO4) the rate determining step involves hydride abstraction while at very high acid concentrations the rate determining step becomes carbonium ion formation.Keywords
