Abstract: Kinetics of the title reduction has been studied spectrophotometricaJly in acetate-acetic acid buffer solutions at different temperatures in the range 20° to 40°c' The effect of varying [H+] on the reduction rate has been investigated at constant ionic strength 'Of0.06. The rate order is 1.0 in both the reactants and - 0.5 in [H+]. The rate of reaction decreases with increase in [H+]. The [H+] dependency indicates the presence of two competitive rate-determining steps. The activation parameters have been determined and found to be S = - 176.09 JK -1 mol-1, H = 17.82 kJ mol-1 and G = 70.30 kJ mol-1. A mechanism consistent with the experimental results has been suggested.
