Popis: Kinetics, activation parameters, and the kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of hydrogen have been determined for the first rate-limiting step of the reactions of benzene, monoalkylbenzenes, dimethylbenzenes, and trimethylbenzenes in HVO3-sulfuric acid (54–70 wt % H2SO4) solutions. The effects of solution acidity on the rate constants (k) and KIE have been studied. The reactions begin with electron transfer from the arene to VO 2 + and end with oxidative coupling: $$PhCH_3 \xrightarrow{{VO_2^ + }}PhCH_3^{ + \cdot } \xrightarrow{{ - H^ \cdot }}PhCH_2^ + \xrightarrow{{PhCH_3 }}PhCH_2 C_6 H_4 CH_3 .$$ logk is a linear function of the ionization potential of the arene (I ArH). A three-parameter correlation is for the first time established between the activation energy (E), the logarithm of the preexponential factor (log A), and I ArH: logA = 0.15E − 0.058I ArH + 49.1 (E and I ArH are expressed in kJ/mol). The reactions of arenes with VO 2 + , NO 2 + , and Co3+ are intercompared.
