Quinolinium Dichromate Oxidation of Diols:  A Kinetic Study

Abstract: Quinolinium dichromate (QDC) in water oxidizes vicinal and nonvicinal diols to the corresponding alpha-hydroxy carbonyl compound. The rate is proportional to the concentrations of diol, oxidant and hydrogen ions, and the reactions proceed almost twice as fast in D(2)O than in H(2)O. These data can be correlated with a mechanistic pathway involving the intermediate formation of a chromate ester, which undergoes decomposition to give the product.

“…When a pre-equilibrium protonation is involved, the acid-catalyzed rate is faster in D 2 O than in H 2 O [24,25]. The trend, k D 2 O > k H 2 O , indicates that the hydroxyl group is involved neither in pre-equilibrium nor in the rate-determining step.…”

“…The solvent isotope effect k (H 2 O)/ k (D 2 O) was found to be ((3.3 × 10 −3 )/(4.84 × 10 −3 )) = 0.68. The acid‐catalyzed rate is faster in D 2 O than in H 2 O, when a preequilibrium protonation is involved . The inverse solvent kinetic isotope effect, i.e., k (D 2 O) > k (H 2 O), indicates that the NH 2 group is not involved in the rate‐determining step and thus supports the formation of complex “C” in the reaction process.…”

“…The use of quinolinium dichromate for the oxidation of non-vicinal diols yielded αhyroxy carbonyl compounds with a mechanistic pathway involving the intermediate formation of a chromate ester, which undergoes decomposition to yield the product [18]. FTIR spectrum analysis of product showed no observable oxidation of the second hydroxyl group in the diol.…”
