The reaction of 2-methylindole with hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline media to produce the corresponding 2-methylindolin-3one has been studied at constant temperature and ionic strength.The reaction followed first order kinetics with respect to [2methylindole], [OH -] and [Fe(CN)6 3-].The effects of added electrolytes, potassium hexacyanoferrate(II), relative permitivity and temperature have also ...
