Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of substituted and unsubstituted 4-oxoacids (S) by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) in
aqueous acetic acid medium have been studied potentiometrically. The reaction follows first-order kinetics, each in 4-oxoacids,
NBS and H+. The effect of changes in the electronic nature of the substrate reveals that there is a development of positive charge
in the transition state. Based on the kinetic results and the product analysis, a suitable mechanism has been proposed for the
reaction of NBS with 4-oxoacids.
