Chemical Oscillations With Sodium Perborate as Oxidant
The peroxo compounds H(2)O(2) and K(2)S(2)O(8) represent one of the major constituents in many oscillatory chemical systems. In this contribution we demonstrate that beside H(2)O(2) and S(2) [Formula: see text] the sodium perborate (NaBO(3)·H(2)O) can act as alternative oxidizing agent in oscillator...

Sumario: | The peroxo compounds H(2)O(2) and K(2)S(2)O(8) represent one of the major constituents in many oscillatory chemical systems. In this contribution we demonstrate that beside H(2)O(2) and S(2) [Formula: see text] the sodium perborate (NaBO(3)·H(2)O) can act as alternative oxidizing agent in oscillatory reactions. So far the H(2)O(2) has been successfully substituted with NaBO(3) in two oscillators: in the BO [Formula: see text] –S(2) [Formula: see text] –Cu(II) flow system potential and pH oscillations, in the strongly alkaline Cu(II)-catalyzed BO [Formula: see text] –SCN(−) batch reaction, which are rather different in their chemistry and dynamics, potential oscillations were observed. In spite of the significant differences in the oxidizing nature of H(2)O(2) and NaBO(3) we assume that the oscillatory cycle in the BO [Formula: see text] –substrate and in the H(2)O(2)–substrate systems is similar in many aspects, therefore the numbers of this new subgroup of the oscillators may be considered to be borate-mediated H(2)O(2) oscillators. Mechanisms are suggested and simulations are shown to describe the oscillatory behaviors observed in the perborate chemistry based oscillators by using the assumption that the oxidation reactions of the intermediates (HO)(3)B(OOH)(−) and (HO)(2)B(OOH) [Formula: see text] anions, which are dominant species in alkaline and neutral pH solutions of perborate, are much faster than that of H(2)O(2). |
