#Oxygen reactivity series#
The inductive effect through σ-framework has been found to dominate the thermodynamic stabilities of carbonyl oxides, while the π-donating property of substituents governs the activation energy for the cyclization to dioxiranes. Literature 1 on the chemical reactivity of carbon suggests four potential chemical reactions between carbon and oxygen, as presented in Table. The reactivity series of metals towards oxygen can assist us in predicting reactions involving metals. Effects of X's on structure and reactivity of these oxides were systematically examined by the density functional BLYP/6-31G * calculations. A structural basis for oxygen reactivity of decarboxylases. b) the relative reactivities of the Group 2 elements Mg Ba shown by their redox reactions with: oxygen, water, dilute acids Scotland. Displacement Reaction - A more reactive metal displaces a less reactive. In the case of persulfoxides (X = R 2S), the dipolar structure (X +-O-O -) is important, their characteristic reaction being nucleophilic O-transfer to sulfoxides, while 3 λ 5-dioxaphosphirane (X = R 3P) can exist only in the cyclic form, showing electrophilic reactivity. Reaction with Oxygen Metals react with oxygen and form metallic oxides which. It has been suggested that nitroso oxides isomerize to the cyclic form yielding the corresponding nitro compounds unimolecularly.
Although cyclic O 3 is thermodynamically unstable, dioxiranes, the cyclic form of carbonyl oxides, have been isolated and fully characterized. It is important to see whether or not XOO species can isomerize to the cyclic isomers.
Ozone and nitroso oxides have an electrophilic character while carbonyl oxides usually act as a nucleophilic oxygen transfer agent, their reactivities being controlled by substituents. The individual features as well as the overviews of structure and reactivities of these X-O-O species are reviewed.
These active oxygen species can be classified into two types depending on whether the X + is an enium (carbenium, nitrenium, silylenium etc.) ion or an onium (ammonium, oxonium, phosphonium, sulfonium etc.) ion, and their reactivities are quite different depending on the nature of X. The structure and chemical properties of 1,3-dipolar peroxidic species (X +-O-O -) such as ozone (X = O), nitroso oxides or nitrenium peroxides (X = RN), carbonyl oxides or carbenium peroxides (X = R 2C), and persulfoxides or sulfonium peroxides (X = R 2S) have been attracting much attention from synthetic, biological, and theoretical standpoints.
