ABSTRACT:

The kinetic behaviour of oxidation of 4-Chloro phenyl ethanol by polymer supported Cr (VI) studied spectrophotometrically and observe the effect of solvents and temperature. The study described the effect of concentration of Cr (IV), the 34-chloro phenyl ethanol and polymer supported reagent on the rate of reaction to arrive at a suitable rate expression. The rate law shows zero order with respect to concentration of polymer supported Cr(VI). The influence of solvents of the medium on the rate has been studied to find out the possible involvement of the oxidizing species in the reaction. The study shows that the reaction was unaffected by changes in the ionic strength of the medium, the effect of temperature on the rate showed the Arrhenius equation and use to evaluate the different activation parameters of the reaction. It has been also observed that this oxidation reaction induces polymerization of acrylonitrile.
