Abstract
The Kinetics of oxidation of isopropyl alcohol by Tripropylammonium fluorochromate {TPAFC} has been Studied spectrophotometrically in presence of Sulphuric acid in aqueous acetic acid medium . The reaction is first order with respect to isopropyl alcohol, TPAFC and fractional order with respect to Acid. The Reaction rate has been determined at different temperatures and activation parameters were calculated. The solvent effect was analyzed using Tafts & Swains multiparametric equation. A suitable mechanism has been proposed.
