摘要

The kinetics of oxidation of substituted 2-aryl-trans-decahydroquinolin-4-ones was studied at 35 degrees C and in the presence of sulphuric acid by using cerium(IV) as oxidising agent. The order of the reaction was found to be each unity with respect to cerium(IV) and substrate. The substitution of methyl group at position 3 decreased the rate of oxidation of the ketones. The rate of oxidation of 3-methyl-2-aryl-trans-decahydroquinolin-4-ones was carried out under different reaction conditions. The rates of oxidations were found to increase with increase in concentration of sulphuric acid, acetic acid in the solvent composition.
