Abstract

The oxidation of pinacol by periodic acid is catalysed by general acids and bases, the catalysed step being cyclisation of a periodate monoester. With ammonia this step is so accelerated that the formation of the monoester becomes partially rate-limiting. The mechanism of the oxidation in both buffered and unbuffered solutions is discussed, and the occurrence of the rate maximum at pH 9 is explained.
