Sonochemical degradation of cyclic nitroxides in aqueous solution.
2012
Abstract The sonochemical degradation of eight five- and six-membered nitroxides has been studied by EPR spectroscopy after exposure to ultrasound at a frequency of 354 kHz in argon-saturated aqueous solution. Concentration vs. time profiles do not follow a simple rate law. Octanol/water partition functions have been determined for all eight nitroxides, and an excellent linear correlation has been found between initial decomposition rates and hydrophobicity (log K octanol/water ). Variation of initial rate with concentration was investigated for one compound (TEMPONE) and is largely consistent with an equilibrium distribution of substrate between bulk solution and the gas/liquid interface.
