    Ru(III)-Catalyzed Oxidative Cleavage of Ritodrine Hydrochloride: A Kinetic and Mechanistic Study

    Abstract: A systematic kinetic and mechanistic study of the oxidation of ritodrine hydrochloride (RTH) with chloramine-T (CAT) in both HClO4 and NaOH media has been carried out at 303 K. In acid medium, the reaction rate is very sluggish to be measured kinetically. Ruthenium (III) chloride ([Ru(III)]) was found to be an efficient catalyst. The reaction rate exhibits a first-order dependence on [CAT]0 in both media. It shows a fractional-order on …
