- Department of Chemistry, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirapalli-620 024 Manuscript received 14 November 1991, revised 9 November 1992, accepted 7 January 1993 Kinetics of oxidation a few phenacyl bromides in aqueous acetonitri'e by hexacyanoferrate(III) at 10° ,has been studied. The reaction is first order in oxidant, phenacyl bromide and hydroxide. The enolate of pheoacyl bromide and ferricyaoide are the reactive species. A suitable mechanism is suggested. Substituent effect is also analysed.
