Kinetics of the oxidation of some meta- and para-substituted dimethylanilines with lead tetra-acetate

Abstract
The second-order kinetics of the oxidation of some aryldimethylamines with lead tetra-acetate in chloroform-acetic anhydride (1 :1 v/v) to give acetamides and formaldehyde follow the equation –d[LTA]/dt=k[LTA][amine]. The obtained ρ value (–2.4 ± 0.5) is consistent with the presence of a positive charge in the transition state.
