Abstract:
The mechanism of the oxidation of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) by hydrogen peroxide was studied in the acidic pH range. The nucleophilic attack by sulphur on the peroxide bond controls the rate. Extrapolation of the pH dependency suggests that the rate of attack by the deprotonated dianion is highest. Traces of Fe(III), at levels below 10-7 mol dm-3, do not catalyze efficiently the process through one-electron mechanisms; at higher concentrations, or on the surface of iron(III) oxides, this type of catalysis becomes important. The electrochemical oxidation of 3-MPA was also studied, using differential pulse polarography and cyclic voltammetry techniques. The mechanism is of the EC2E type, the second electron transfer step corresponding to the oxidation of the disulphide RS-SR. The rate constant for the dimerization of the RS. radicals was 1.8 × 103 mol-1 dm3 s-1; the slowness of this step agrees with the mechanisms observed in the course of one-electron oxidations by metal ions.
